State Park Overview |
|
In the rustic tradition of the Civilian Conservation Corps, DeSoto State Park is accented by rushing waterfalls and fragrant wildflowers. The atmosphere of the CCC further enhances the restaurant, lodge and cabin facilities. Nestled atop beautiful scenic Lookout Mountain, this 3,502-acre park also provides modern chalets and campsites, as well as a picnic area, swimming pool, tennis courts, nature center and hiking trails. During your stay, you can photograph DeSoto Falls or hike to Indian Falls and along the West Fork of Little River.

Trails |

Boardwalk Trail
The Azalea Cascade Boardwalk Trail was planned and built through a community effort. Grants and donations paid for the materials used to build the trail. It was constructed by the Alabama State Parks Maintenance Crew.
The Boardwalk is a 360-yard trail that can be enjoyed and traveled by people of all abilities. No matter what the season, the boardwalk gives the hiker a unique perspective of the surrounding habitat.
A 20-foot octagon deck at the end of the trail places you over the pool created by the Azalea Cascade. A mid-April walk encircles you with the fragrant aroma of wild azaleas.
Enjoy the breathtaking views from the Boardwalk Trail for yourself. |
