You can hike to the Devils Jump Overlook from Blue Heron or just to the northwest from the Gorge Overlook Car Park. The former is a longer, hillier trail whereas the latter is a paved path of around 0.3 miles. It is a stunning viewpoint over the Devils Jump, a set of rapids on the Cumberland River South Fork. You will also find some shade and bench seating, the perfect place for lunch or a snack break.
