Review:
DeSoto State Park is found on the top of Lookout Mountain in Northeastern Alabama and is known for its captivating waterfalls and beautiful vast meadows of wildflowers.
The park was founded in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps and is perfect for nature lovers and outdoor adventurers. Visitors can go kayaking, fishing, hiking, rappelling, and rock climbing, mountain biking, walking, and wildlife viewing.
People love to explore the 25 miles of trails, the restaurant, pavilions, playgrounds, public seasonal swimming pool, the nature center, and the Civilian Corps Museum. DeSoto State Park is about two hours from Birmingham, and somewhere you can stay all day.
