Cape Fear River Trail View

Raven Rock State Park #4

 

A trail view of the old Fish Traps area.

 

Raven Rock State Park was established in 1969 in Lillington, North Carolina in the United States. It covers over 4,800 acres of hiking, bike, and bridle trails, river access, and camping cabins!

 

The park is famous for a huge rock formation off of the Cape Fear River that is 150 feet high and stretches a mile down river. It was a landmark for river travel since early times. It was named Raven Rock in the 1800's after many ravens were seen roosting on rock ledges.

 

The park also has a horizontal waterfall named Lanier Falls, remains of a river ferry, the Fish Traps, and other cool rock formations!
