Quiet, short, but at times steep hike, leading to a cliff area surrounded by amazing rock formations.

Simply beautiful. I was in awe of the beauty of the forrest and rock cliffs. Some challenging parts on the trail, but mostly it is very easy to navigate.

AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL. HAD A BLAST. The walk was only for able bodied people. There's a bit of climbing and crossing streams so prepare to possibly get wet feet. Completely worth the walk. We turned a 1.5-2 hour walk into about 4.5 hours. Taking time and taking photos.. I want to go back again when the seasons change and see everything growing ..

Great hike. Several water falls off of this trail.A couple of steep inclines but would rate as moderate. Beautiful hike indeed.

Primitive camping is allowed, just not near the trailhead. Also watch for specific signs/stakes that prohibit camping and/or campfires in certain places--these are usually near trail or rockfaces.

Are dogs on leases allowed?

We take our pug and pittie both, every time we go. If you're approaching the parking lot, the entrance to the trail, on the left, is where we start. It's easier for us, and our dogs to climb up the rocks, using them as steps. If you start the other way, you have to go down down the rocks, and I find that more difficult with the dogs.

There is a ranger station in Tell City but not sure if that is the closest one to you. I have never seen anyone camping at that location. So best to call.
