My parents have been taking me to this spot at the falls a since I was a kid. I like to walk there so we usually park at the visitor center and walk the almost 3 mile hike round trip. Good exercise, peaceful and love the scenery. The falls is always beautiful, no matter how much the water is flowing. Beautiful place to take pictures

Love this park! Nature, fresh air, wildlife, and trails that lead to Cunningham Falls. A nice day adventure to get away from the bustle of the city.
The trails need to be marked better though. But the range at the visitor center helped us with navigating.

Great hiking with great views! We took the orange trail and hiked to wolf and chimney rock. The views from chimney rock were spectacular. Wolf rock was interesting but without the spectacular views. The trail was well marked, somewhat challenging and the 4 miles took us 2 hours and 30 minutes. The park rangers were helpful and restrooms clean. We started our hike at 0830 and I recommend getting there early. The parking spaces fill up quickly at the visitor center where we accessed the trail.

Most of the miles of trails are moderate to hard for serious hikers. However there are two trails that are easy and short enough for children. Dogs are welcome on all trails. Beautiful area worth exploring whether you're a hard-core hiker or a weekend stroller. The pictures are from the Blue Blazes Whiskey Still Trail. The sign is hard to read in pic but it's about a scavenger hunt for kids to engage them in nature.

This was my first trip to the park. Very nice park. My hike to Chimney Rock was great. The trail is rocky with some hills to climb. Total trip is 4 miles. The overlook is a perfect view! Hiking boots are best. Happy hiking!

Cool place to hike. Took 3 hours to finish wolf and chimney rock trails.
End result: beautiful sunset spot

Rest of the places are closed, could be because of winter.
Have fun at-least by looking at my shots!!

Awesome view, great place to visit for a day when your with someone or a group of friends. Graffiti sprayed on all the rocks overlooking the great view of the Appalachian! Highly recommended to visit this location! Really high up so stay back if your afraid of heights! I had a great time visiting here and expect people to come here at least once! I posted some photographs so you can have a quick look for yourself.
