The visitor center is located outside the main park but I recommend a visit to the visitor center before anything else. The visitor center offers maps, trail guides, and advice from rangers. The park itself is quite remote and peaceful. The river is free flowing and for the most part calm in the summer months. For hikes, I recommend the point trail and the overlook trail. Bring plenty of water and be on the lookout for snakes and other wildlife.

Awesome place. So pretty. Hiking, camping, paddling, climbing, etc. come see it for yourself. It’s magical. Great climbing on some beautiful steep southern rock. Variety of climbs ranging from 5.4ish to stupid hard. Nice park ranger staff. Really knowledgeable about the area. Campground is awesome.

The rangers at the visitors center were great! We had our 7 yo with us and they were really good with her. They are very knowledgeable about everything in the area. They gave us 3 suggestions of what to do and we were going to do all three …

It's free except for campsites in park. I believe they are around 15, don't quote me, but it's close to that and we'll worth it.
