| Hey Guys we are planning a trip to Wind Rock in late March or April. We have been a few times with other groups, but on this trip it may just be the wife and I. So my question is can you give me some good safe, easy trails say starting from the parking lot to go check out some sights. We dont care if its trails or gravel roads. On this trip we just want to cruise around and take some pics. We have been to the wind mills and would like to go to some over looks or water falls maybe back to the flats, creeks rivers anything like that. Thanks for any suggestions | |

| Leave the parking lot and go 100 feet up the road and turn right on the first trail, follow till you get to a left turn fork, go up the right fork and you will be at a overlook. Its a long ride to the flats, best thing to do is buy a map at the permit shack in the upper parking area. If anybodys refers you to the snak ahack, just a heads up, its gone, closed down, permits are in the uper parking area or back toward oak ridge in the gas station across from the hardees resturant. | |

| Lot of good sight seeing on the north side. The flats are nice. We always like to check out the old prison in petros. I beleive its trail 26 or 27 that takes you over there on the south side. | |

| Get map, and from parking lot run trail 1, turn lef on Trail 2, turn left on Trail 24 ( old resivoir dam and over look), turn right on pavement and see if any crawlers playin on rattle rock--always a fun sight to to see if so..Run gravel to wind mills but if want more trail time, run down p1 and go back up to gravel on Trail 22, then turn right and check out stair steps--again always fun to see if anyone is playing---gravel to windmills. Easy trails- I wouldnt hesitate to take those trails with my granny. |
