Hacklebarney State Park

Nice trails, some very rocky but a fun hike!
Nice trails, some very rocky but a fun hike!
Nice moderate adventurous hike. There are path ways to follow once you leave the parking lot, but not sure where it ends. I usually off road it and set out for the walking the rocks. Nothing extreme, sneakers with a good grip or bucking boots; foot flops if you want to be a risk taker. 

In my childhood days we used to play in the water near the edges. I'm sure it gets deep in parts but I don't venture into anything I can't see the bottom of. Not 100% if full on water engulfment is allowed park rangers can be seen at times. Other than heavy rainfall or excessive snow accumulation, I have personally never seen either river way raging. 

There are snakes that like to sunbathe on rocks, fallen tree branches, even just snuggled up near a bench. Use caution and be respectful of the wildlife and all should be well. 

There are a select few picnic tables and possible some grills to use. No trash cans on the walkways so plea as be considerate and take all trash with you when you leave. Bathrooms are available only near the parking lot before growing down a sloped trail or stairs to get to the trails and river.
