Put”cave” in your name, and most visitors head straight underground- leaving the trails lacing the bumby karst land-scape above blissfully quiet. Explore the park’s old-growth cedar stands and riverside bluffs on the 16.5-mile, two- or-three day loop connecting the Raymer Hollow, Blair Spring Hollow, Wet Prong of the Buffalo, and Buffalo Creek Trails, camping at Raymer Hollow, Ferguson, or Collie Ridge.
