Some of the best rock climbing in south east. The ones experience is not complete with out staying at the Lilly pad and having a beer

Nice area lots of blackberry patches for gathering

Patrick Brown

Beautiful views and good walking trails.

Shelley Tucker

My boyfriend & I went here last year but I gotta tell you that view is one of the best views of the mountains I've seen here in our own state. The cliff view is just breathtaking. & it has so many nice hiking trails around.

Great little day trip

Justin Padinske

All rock climbers must go here once! It is a gem hidden by Red River Gorge and other places but an amazing wonder.

matt fischer

Good Ranger-led hikes there, great place for many outdoor activities, or just hanging out.

Robert Langdon

Not worth the drive.

Samantha Kirk

Incredible scenic wilderness

Debrina Scarbrough

Great way to spend the day with family and friends

Mitch Aldrich

Lilly Bluff Overlook hike is great for young children. The path is wide most of the way and gently sloped. Hiking the Boulder trail was also great because of the cool moss covered rocks with fun overhangs. Lots of wild mushrooms, fall leaves, and other cool things for children. Beautiful spot, highly recommend.

Janice McGregor

Loved it, beautiful!

Ginger Reynolds Brandenburg

Nice place

Paige Watson

Other than hateful people leaving their trash and throwing out beer can and bottles as they drive around on the trails. Oh and all the 9 mm casings and used shot gun shells that I was concerned about the obvious DUI issues plus the fact that there were people with plenty of money to waste ammo. Not sure I feel safe with the deadly combination that was there at some point in the past week or so prior to our visit.

Christopher Anderson

A magical place

Theressa Dittmer

Great place to swim

Kenneth Bray

Historical sites. Wildlife galore.

Lucy Embry

Beautiful, unique places to explore, striking rock features, interesting history. Trails easy to moderate only because of all the roots and rocks you need to watch out for on the trails.

Brandon Brown

Beautiful drive and great climbing area. Short hike from the road and very impressive rock. The rangers were very friendly and the routes are well bolted. Not many routes top out but that is because of a 5.13+ overhangs. That same overhangs provides great shade and light rain protection. The bugs were not out the day we were there but it was crowded.

Ken Johnson

Cumberland Trail thru here is beautiful !

Travis Scroggins

Terrific views and super clean!

David Thomson

Highly recommended! Amazing friendly rangers, great video presentation if the park. Check out the overlook for a great view. There is a fun hike from the overlook to the river bridge. Our group of 50's and 60's had a great time in the hike. Not challenging, but take your time. You'll love it.

Sasha Oliver

They keep the park areas cleaned up real nice and it's just a beautiful place to go

This location is just an information center. The guy working was very helpful and gave us several Maps. The actual locations are about 20+ minutes from this location. There are bathrooms on site here.

Jenna Norton

The water is so clear that you can see every stone and fish...

Charles Samuels

Great outdoor experiences!!

Marissa Hearn

The trails are very well taken care of and beautiful! It might not be for first time hikers, but it's not so difficult that you can't hike for an hour or two.

Amazing place for recreation! I went when it was raining so I wasn't able to enjoy the full experience, but from what I could see and do I am confident that you could just about find what you want to do if you visit this place. From fishing, canoeing, kayaking, rock climbing, swimming, etc. the list of possible activities goes on for a considerable amount of time. Definitely recommend visiting this place!
