Tobie Sparks- MayfieldThis was a quick hike that I finished in about 30 minutes. Tory’s Den was interesting to see, especially after reading about the history of the area, and there were some nice views along the trail. Tory’s Falls was a little anticlimactic during my visit because the drought had reduced it to barely a trickle. That obviously isn’t the park’s fault, and I think it would be much more impressive after a period of good rainfall. The cave and scenery still made the stop worthwhile, especially since the hike wasn’t long.

Kerrie PruittHanging Rock State Park did not disappoint! We visited on 3/1/26- visited early morning and wasn’t very busy at the time. Beautiful hike shared with the trail to Tory’s den falls

Amber MullisTory’s Den Cave & Falls is a beautiful hidden gem tucked away in Hanging Rock State Park! The short hike to the falls was peaceful and scenic, with lush greenery all around. The waterfall itself, though seasonal, was still worth the visit for the tranquil atmosphere and cool, shaded surroundings. It’s a great spot for nature lovers, photographers, or anyone looking to escape the hustle and breathe in some mountain air. Definitely a must-see if you’re exploring the area!

Explore With WhoSunday Labor Day weekend I had the place basically to myself I’ve seen only three people very quiet when you come to the parking lot it’s free cause you’re on the backside of the hanging rock take a right once you park walk to falls is only 0.2 miles easy walk which you can’t swim because it’s Trinkling from the rocks all the way down. If you go to the den, which is a small whole cave like not very deep inside, it says end of trail I went past that you can find a little falls in the woods very peaceful
