Trail Map |
This trail accesses rock overhangs and follows a cliff face. Reflect on the power of erosion and the geologic wonder of the great rock houses. Benches, interpretive signage and a boardwalk are all part of your trail experience on the Rock House Trail.
Wildflowers are at their peak in the spring but we ask that you not pick them so that others may also enjoy them. The hiker who treads softly can often catch glimpses of the wildlife who call the forest home. Bring your binoculars and enjoy your visit.
The trail is located by the Lake Vesuvius boat dock parking area on the north side of the lot. The trail extends beyond the paved path, connecting with the Oak Hill Campground at two different trailheads.
