    Love this place!

    Took my children there as kids, and now we are taking their kids. Great place for adventure and a hike that all members of the family can handle.

    Coolest place I have been in a long time!

    My husband saw an ad for this park on the I love NY commercial and we headed out for a weekend trip. It’s such an awesome park. The owner is wonderful to talk to also! Highly recommended!

    Unusual place in an unexpected area

    This is an unusual place in an unexpected area. It's got the intrigue of a Utah park, but in a wooded setting in the east. Lots to explore, and totally fascinating. You could easily spend a whole day here, but plan a half of a...More

    Scenic walk

    The hike through the Panama Rock Scenic Park was one of the nicest hikes I have been one. I just loved the many points of interests along the way. My favorite were the roots that grew along the sides of the rocks.

    Our trail is an easy to moderate hiking trail. There are short stretches with a 20-30% grade and embedded roots and rocks mean that it is not wheelchair/stroller accessible. If a person can walk on uneven ground for a mile... More

    Pets are not allowed. Due to tight crevices and areas that have drop-offs, it’s a safety concern. They are pet-lovers and want our fur-babies safe!

    There is a rest room available, some area for a blanket picnic and I think a swing set for the kids. It is open from the middle of May to middle of October.
