Pretty much a “slip and slide” adventure right now. If you go, there’s still quite a lot of slushy snow and ice! Wear shoes or boots with good traction. It would have been nice to remember my trekking poles!!🤔😛 Many of the trails were unattainable but we still had a blast!!
Visited during late summer / early fall. Area is relatively easy to find. There is ample parking with ample restroom and picnic facilities near the lot. The trails were a bit confusing to follow so we ended up doing one that we had to climb a ladder which was harder with a toddler. The terrain was beautiful. We will be back to try out some other trails.
Great park with beautiful and well kept trails! There are quite a few trails throughout the park. Trail 3 is a fun hike that will allow you to see the high rock walls and climb the ladders. Trail 9 is a more rugged hike with great views of trees during the fall color changes and has a fun rugged climb. Definitely looking forward to exploring more trials at Turkey Run!
This is an incredible park. The rock ledges are gorgeous and the trail takes you right through them. The bridge at the front is cool, the river is beautiful, the trail has some unique aspects like ladders to get up and down the rocks. Beautiful scenery and a really fun hike. Nice signage that educates about the natural history of the park. Well-maintained and worth a visit.
Love this place! The paths were amazing and so gorgeous! Loved the steps cut into the rocks so cool and fun! Staff were super friendly. We did a scavenger hunt (that one of the park rangers made) participated in different activities throughout the park to get a cool pin and there is still more to do! Can’t wait to go back ♥︎ sad the gift shop was closed on weekdays but we got a couple good stickers from the inn to add to our collection
