Getting Outdoors

The extensive boardwalk system that winds through the park makes hiking an easy and enjoyable activity for all. They weave their way through the forest and are coupled with lots of stairs that take you over the hills and down into the mouths of caves. With plenty to see along the way, it is a very interesting walk.

The caves are an attraction in themselves for those RV camping at Rock Bridge Memorial State Park, although good walking shoes are advised, as is a flashlight. The Devil's Icebox Cage is one of the most interesting, and visitors are able to get a guided tour. It is located right in the center of the forest with two wooden bridges across its entrance. Connors Cave is another popular cave to explore, and this is one that can be explored on your own. The whole park is filled with sinkholes and caves, which have been created by acidic water flow, and visitors can choose from a range of classes, tours, and training to see the best spots.

After exploring all, there is to offer at this fascinating site, sit back and relax in the scenic surroundings with a picnic before heading back to your rental RV. There are a number of picnic spots scattered around the park which provide either a moment of solitude or a place to spend time with friends and family.
