パウエル郡のおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Said to be named for its resemblance to a courthouse, this feature stands alone at the north end of Auxier Ridge. Reached as part of several possible loops, the stunning Courthouse Rock makes for an enticing mid-hike destination.

Compared to other geological formations in the area, Haystack Rock's domed shape seems conspicuously different—topped by its disc-shaped apex and circumscribed by the lines that suggest its sedimentary layers.

A perfect viewpoint for taking in the surrounding Red River Gorge geological area, especially when the leaves are in full fall color. Hanson's Point lies in the Cumberland Region of Daniel Boone National Forest, and Hanson's Point trail offers prime birdwatching and mushroom hunting at the right times of year.

Grays Arch is a visually-striking, towering sandstone arch that pays off the effort made to reach it. For safety, the Forest Service recommends using only the eastern portion of the side trail to the arch before continuing on your loop (use the eastern section of #205 Grays Arch Trail as an out-and-back spur rather than as a bypass to connect to #221 Rough Trail on either side of the arch). As always in this area, sturdy footwear that offers good grip in wet conditions is a must!

This bridge has a nice but tiny waterfall after the rain
