I too wish there were more than 5 stars as expressed in another post! We made a day trip that was about 4 hours round trip from TN and definitely worth the trip. The park ranger was a delightful lady with a passion for her job and KY parks (especially her own). She suggested areas for us to particularly hike to in our limited time and we were not disappointed. The dramatic rock formations capture your eye at every turn. Some of my pictures in the natural rock amphitheater look like artwork with the different rock colors. We are already looking forward to returning in the spring when the rhododendron are in bloom.
