Dighton Rock State Park — Attraction in Berkley

Love Dighton Rock State Park! Its a small, quiet park with an awesome museum full of local history. The drive to the park is itself a cute jaunt off the highway. Once you drive into the park and follow the road to the end, you have a beautiful, spacious area with benches, bbq pits, and a gorgeous view of the water. Hike around the cleared trails for a shady adventure or go into the museum for a well researched and in depth discovery of the Dighton Rock, full of carvings and pictogram left by ancient explorers. We took out dog niece around the park and it was so pleasant. If you're local and want a secluded place to ride your bike to or to have a cookout, this State Park is awesome. Just make sure you use the bathroom at home, as they only provide...

Museum is often locked even when park ranger is there. Unless you search him up to unlock it, door isn’t open to view exhibit that has not been updated or refreshed in years. Why state bothers to keep this open is beyond me. Trails are lands taken by state from local families who had cottages along water - in this day and age of heralding what’s wrong why hasn’t anyone noticed this? As for cemetery, state doesn’t acknowledge multiple years of satanic worship that went on in one of the cottage ruins … where they sacrificed animals. State fortunately knocked that building down but years too late. And yes, there are lots of people that hang around...

This is a magical and scenic park with lots of hiking trails and river views. If you can manage to visit the museum, you'll get a solid dose of history with a good bit of mystery as a bonus.

Although I live in the south, I've visited this area on business for two decades and this park (and Profile Rock) are frequent hiking areas that I first discovered with Geocaching. Once, I was visiting the DR museum when a Native American elder was there and learned a bit about the origins of place names.

A very special...
