Choccolocco State Forest got its name from the creek "Choccolocco." In the Creek language, "Chahko" means "shoals," and "logo" means "big." This creek runs north to south, roughly dividing the forest in half. This area was home to Native Americans thousands of years ago, and archaeologists at Jacksonville State University have found artifacts dating back to the Archaic period, approximately 8,000 years ago.

Bald Rock is the highest point in Alabama at 2,326 feet. It is primarily reached via the Doug Ghee Accessible Trail, an 1,520-foot elevated boardwalk that is handicap accessible. It ends at the summit where there is an observation platform that offers sweeping 180-degree views, making it a prime spot for hawk-watching, especially during the fall migration from mid-September to mid-November. In addition to raptors and hawks, along the trail you might be able to spot a variety of other bird species, including Scarlet and Summer Tanagers, Pine Warblers, and Winter Wrens.
