Description

Join a ranger for a 2 mile hike to Cracks in the Rock.  This moderately strenuous hike takes you to one of the many fabulous rock formations found in Big South Fork.  As you enter this crack in the cliff side, a ranger will explain how rock formations form on the Cumberland Plateau and how the American Indian and settlers used these valuable areas many years ago.  Bring water, snacks, bug spray, and wear sturdy shoes for trail.  

Well behaved dogs are invited, however, leashes are required.
