Elephant Rock SP

Ok, this area isn't exactly off trail or hard to find - but it is worth a post for sure! If you haven't been there, go. If you have been there, go again. Seriously, it's that good.




You can explore anywhere you can actually get to. Climbing is without restriction and encouraged! There are rocks ranging from the size of your hand, to the size of a large car. I would plan on spending at least an hour and a half to see the park depending on how fast you move.


At Elephant Rock SP I saw individuals ranging in age from 6 to 66 enjoying the area and being challenged. It is a good place to take the family or to just explore on your own/with friends. This is one of the few places I've found that I think it's more fun with company, simply because it's fun to race across the tops of the rocks and challenge one another to different levels of jumps and climbs.  



Every time I have been there, it has been very busy, so be prepared. It is very unlikely you'll get the place to yourself. But, no matter how busy, it's always possible to find corners that you'll have to yourself. 


Below is a link for the park's website where you can find directions. The park will also appear on most GPS systems.
