Can you hear the call of the wild? If you’d like to spend some time in the great outdoors this summer, lace up your hiking boots and head over to Cedars of Lebanon State Park!
Hike the State Park
If you’re looking for a scenic place to take a hike, then you’ll be pleasantly impressed by the trials at Cedars of Lebanon State Park. This picturesque woodland is home to several hiking trails that offer an enjoyable exploration of the forested area, and all trails are considered relatively easy to allow leisurely strolls for hikers of all skill levels. Trail lengths range from the half-mile Dixon Merrit Trail and Limestone Sinks Trail to the five-mile Hidden Springs trail, allowing you to make a quick trek or make a full afternoon out of your hike. As you wander, look closely through your surroundings. You might just spot some of the park’s wildlife, as Cedars of Lebanon is home to deer, rabbits, turkeys, and even foxes. You’ll also see signage describing the plant life visible from the trail.
Pack a Picnic
If you work up an appetite on your adventure, you’ll already be in the perfect place for a picnic. Before you head out to the state park, pack a picnic’s worth of food, as you can utilize the park’s picnic tables and covered spaces to relax and enjoy your meal.
