Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area has got to be one of the most beautiful national parks in the United States covering a total area of 119,000 acres, soon to be 125,000 acres. The park attracts almost 1,000,000 visitors yearly. Stretching far into Tennessee and Southern Kentucky, the park has several points of interest including nine overlooks showing breathtaking views and four beautiful waterfalls.

In the Big South Fork, while hiking or horseback riding you will find many rock shelters (Indian Bluffs), which the Cherokee Indians and other native American tribes from as far back as 10,000 B.C., used for shelter and living quarters. While viewing these shelters you will notice the ceilings are blackened by thousands of fires created by these native Americans.

Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area offers some of the finest mountain horse back riding trails (180 miles of trails), a total of 150 miles of hiking trails, and over 80 miles of river for white water rafting, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and swimming.
