The group and I walk Trail 5, which is moderate because it’s pretty flat. Also m its the one closest to the wolf cave. And, no there are no wolves in the cave, it’s just a limestone cave with a passageway inside. If your afraid of the dark or claustrophobic, this is not for you.

Here is more information about the trails:

If you are going to visit the creek check the river flow before entering. The group and I were able to enter because it was very low. We could even walk in front of the waterfall.

Wolf Cave

There are aslo alot of events in the park like arts and crafts, paiting, feeding bugs and turtles, bird watching, night hikes, owl watching and survival seminars.

I had a great time and would love to return to walk the other trails and go to the lookout tower to enjoy the view.

Enjoy the Pictures!
