Conkle's Hollow

 

Conkle's Hollow is one of the six major areas of Hocking Hills State Park. Old Man's Cave, Ash Cave, Rock House, Conkle's Hollow, Cedar Falls and Cantwell Cliffs. Each of the park areas offer a unique experience for those who walk their paths. From hemlock-lined trails, to huge rock formation, waterfalls to rock bridges, guests to the park are sure to treasure their explorations for years to come.  Rich in forested areas and natural wonders, there are over 25 miles of hiking trails in the Hocking Hills State Park system

The lower level is now handicap accessible and fun for little feet. The upper level is definitely not recommended for kids!

Rugged cliffs, steep ledges and tiny recess caves make this remote trail a wonderful hike for the adventurous.

 

From Logan - Take State Route 664 to Big Pine Road

GPS Tracking: 39.452879,-82.572148

Interesting things to look for:

 

Cliffs, a meandering stream, enormous hemlocks and rock

formations make the lower hiking trail a wonderful adventure.

The recess cave with a seasonal waterfall at the end makes the trail worth the walk.

Be Careful! I wouldn't recommend taking the kids on the upper level of the trail. Hiking can be hazardous.

 

Length: The rim is 2 1/2 miles long and the lower trail is about a mile. It takes about an hour

Remember: You know your child's abilities best. Use caution on any trail and keep them close by. Everyone must stay on the trails at Hocking Hills State Park.
