About 6 miles east of Albemarle, Morrow Mountain State Park is a heaven for those who like hiking, camping, fishing, paddling, horseback riding, swimming, or just enjoying the beautiful scenery. There are more than 15 miles of well-maintained hiking trails and 16 miles of bridle trails, which go from the summit of Morrow Mountain to Lake Tillery. The lake has a boathouse with rental boats, canoes, and fishing bait and there is a campground with 106 spots for tents, RVs, and trailers. While swimming in the lake is not allowed because of dangerous currents, there is a fun swimming pool with showers and changing rooms and even a kiddy pool. An old stone bathhouse offers poolside amenities as well as cold drinks and snacks.
