Fantastic mountain bike trail on the east side that seems to have more down than up. Some beautiful views around the lake.

Hobbs state park has some great hiking and biking trails. Pigeon roost (hiking only), karst loop (hiking and biking) are my favourite trails. Both have access and lookout points on the lake. Great swimming hikes too, if you want to spend time in the water. Kayaking is a big time activity too. The rangers are an awesome bunch too, if you are looking for any information. They are also doing outdoor space rentals, if you want to have a fun get together (seating, cooking space and refrigerator available too).

Went to the Birds of Prey presentation this morning with my family and it was by far the best I've been to in a long time. Not boring at all and very informative. My two daughters enjoyed it as well and they are 9 and 13. The gift shop is one of the best as well. Lots of things we haven't seen at other state park gift shops!

Hobbs state park visitor center was really nice. It was very clean. A nice little gift shop. The bathrooms were sparkling clean. It had nice paved walking trails. There is some nice information on animals in the area. There was an easy 3/4 …

There are many miles of multi-use trails that also allow horses. The main one is the Hidden Diversity trail. There is parking for horse trailers at Townsend Ridge Road trailhead and Piney Road Trailhead (East side of road). Townsend has the most room.

What is the fee for entrance for all activities or mainly the cave also is it open sundays?

There is no fee to enter the state park. The War Eagle Cavern is privately owned, and is not part of the park.

When and where is the best time to view hummingbirds ?

Dick Beck | May 7, 2021
Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area (Owner) | May 8, 2021

We have seen a few at the feeder at the Visitor Center, but these are probably the males which usually arrive before the females to stake out territories, and some are just pausing on their way further north. There are some flowers blooming to provide nectar, but they also eat small flying insects, and those are definitely out now. Here in a few weeks there should be many more. Look around feeders or flowers, especially red ones like fire pink or columbine.
