Rocks State Park is a 855-acre park that consists of rocky forest land in rural northern Harford County near the town of Pylesville. The stars of the park are two geological formations called King and Queen Seat, 190-foot high rock outcrops overlooking Deer Creek, as well as Kilgore Falls. Rocks were one of the first Maryland state parks established to protect a unique natural feature. The main part of the park has three picnic areas and more than three miles of hiking trails. From here, you can also access Deer Creek, which is perfect for wading, fishing, and tubing. The park has two non-contiguous parts: Falling Branch, which is home to Kilgore Falls, and Hidden Valley, both just a short drive from the main part of the park.
