Must be very careful as there are a great many poisonous copperheads in this park. People have been bitten. They especially like your camp fire wood pile. They love to hide in it. They come out at night and sometimes are found warming up on the asphalt blacktop. So be careful walking to the bathroom.

If you're interested in some challenging hiking and/or magnificient geologic views, then The Breaks is the place to visit. I stood in awe at the numerous overlooks as I thought about how the river carved this canyon through Pine Mountain. There are a number of trails available, some more challenging than others. Make sure you do get a trail map and descriptions from the Visitor Center. About the only trails I would recommend for children (between 6-10) would be the Ridge, upper part of the Laurel Branch Trail and the Deer and Beaver Pond Trails. I would not recommend the lower trails near the river to any chilidren under 14 or 15, unless your children are very mature. These trails are demanding and are not be "messed around on."I stayed in the hotel located on the grounds. Reservations for these can only be made in advance and are pre-paid. The room was very roomy, had a great view of the canyon region and included a mini refrigerator. There were also extra pillows and blankets already in the room.

Called the 'Grand Canyon of the South", the Breaks is loaded with wonderful views. The paddle boats are loads of fun and there are several walking trails.

The overlooks are great. If a train is moving on the tracks below it looks like a toy train. Food is good in the lodge.

Hike the Cold Stream Trail,then the Geological trail, They're beautiful in the Spring or fall and not too hot in the summer. Eat at the park lodge or at The Rust..k in Elkhorn, expect standard country cooking

visited in January 2012. Beautiful place but not a place we will visit again - went to see what the campground was all about and check out the hiking trails while we were there... Beautiful scenary along one of the main trails - nice paved roads to get to the camping spots - very spread out for our taste - we are more social campers and for us this place didn't have the "social" feel. nice cabins and looked to have a nice pool (public) as well as for campers...

Great Park that does a lot to entertain its guest. We were ther in a RV. Big campground but not very pretty. Would be beautiful in the fall.

Want a great place to spend your day and enjoy a picnic, let your family explore trails and see some of the most incredible scenes our region has to offer. Then this park is a must-do. It has everything you want from a lodge with a pool to swift water if that should tempt you as well.

cleanliness is not a priority bears come up to camp sites

We visited the Breaks Interstate Park between, Virginia and Kentucky. The views were fantastic. They also had a Civil War Reenactment going on that weekend. You need to do some climbing to get to the wonderful views, but they are well worth all those steps.
