No way you could swim in the gorge. There is a large lake nearby with a city beach.

No swimming at this one but keep looking. There are lots of great swimming holes nearby!

Swimming is not allowed, Swimming pool is available at South Entrance. It is well maintained and no charges to use it.

$250 fine if in water. No swimming, but the on site pool is fabulous.

There is no swimming in the gorge and not sure you want to swim in that water if you check the latest water quality tests. There is a swimming pool in the park near the south entrance.

Me personally, I did not see anyone swim there but there could be a specific section where you can.

Therea us no swimming but they do have an olympic size pool by the camp area along with places where you can barbecue

Definitely no swimming aloud. There are areas of rapid water and tight gorges. You walk the trails only with park rangers around at certain points. Try a pool or the beautiful lake in town.

The inground pool is included in the $10 State Park Parking fee!

No swimming in the gorge but the camp site at the South Entrance offers a swimming pool.

$250 fine and you'll probably die.
