South Bloomingville

Travel Guide

Cool hiking spot!
The upper fall at Old Man's cave are likely the most well known and photographed in the park. If you want to see the falls at their peak, head there in late winter/early spring just as the snow melts and preferably after a heavy rain fall. Also if your schedule permits, head there on a weekday morning and you just might have the place to yourself for a bit. Old Man's Cave derives its name from the hermit Richard Rowe who lived in the large recess cave of the gorge. Rowe lived out his life in the area and is buried beneath the ledge of the main recess cave.
Lower Falls at Old Man's Cave is one of the iconic vistas in the Hocking Hills State Park area. If you do a little homework ahead of time, you can see a lot of waterfalls with minimal hiking in this part of Ohio. #Trovember
This year Ohio has recieved record rain. All the rain has made the falls at Hocking Hills State park come to life. Hocking Hills is a gem of a state park. Dozens of falls and caves with annual attendance between 2 to 4 million visits per year.
An absolutely gorgeous sight! A frozen in time water cascade on the trail at Old Man's Cave. This multi-tiered natural masterpiece had to be 25ft tall and stretch over 100ft wide. The lowest tier is tall enough that you can walk behind it.

Conkles Hollow is a state nature preserve within the Hocking Hills region. Its sheer cliffs of Black Hand sandstone rise nearly 200 feet above the valley floor. The deep, cool gorge, which is only 100 feet wide in places and is considered to be the deepest in Ohio, has numerous waterfalls cascading over its sandstone cliffs. The lower trail through the gorge is about 1 mile and is accessible for the most casual of hikers. The rim trail is a couple miles long and is a bit more strenuous.
