Beautiful, peaceful, and well maintained. I use to love bringing my dog and walking the trail before my auto accident. I can’t get through the trail now in a regular wheelchair but highly recommend visiting this awesome place for anyone and everyone that likes to hike. The covered bridge, outdoor chapel, and old cabin along the trail that circles a massive man made lake are really cool stopping points. There are benches along the path for anyone needing a rest.
Handicapped access issue to anyone in a wheelchair I was here for a family reunion recently at the pavilion. The park staff tends to add excess gravel for the walking path to the pavilion which makes it nearly impossible for anyone in a manual wheelchair to navigate without a lot of extra help.

Up till Elevation ~1000 ft, the Trails were mostly dry and in good condition. The Trails were reasonably well-maintained, well-signed and the Trail Blaze(s) were especially helpful when traversing those sections that were covered by fallen leaves.
~08:30 while leavlng Alum Cave, we had our first sighting of people - 2 women passing by on the "upper" Alum Hollow Trail. We didn't see any one else until we got back to the Trailhead parking (where 4 vehicles had arrived and parked).
Thank y'all Land Trust...

When you get to the rock steps, go 👇 down, you're at the falls and the bluff is down the rock steps and to your left. Even though weather conditions weren't great, what a beautiful place. The trail was well maintained.The hike was moderate and peaceful. The hardwoods and pine canopy made for a shaded walk. I cannot wait to see this in the 🍁 fall...
