National Public Lands Day Hike – Lost River State Park - September 26, 2026
September 26 @ 9:00 am
National Public Lands Day is a collective act of care that strengthens our connection to the landscape and to each other. Through service and celebration, we acknowledge our place as custodians of these shared treasures, ensuring the American tradition of public lands endures for those who will inherit them. This year, there’s even more reason to show up. National Public Lands Day (NPLD) falls during a landmark year as America celebrates its 250th anniversary. What better way to mark the occasion than by giving back to the public lands we all share.
Join the park naturalist for a hike to Miller’s Rock! This will be a moderately difficult hike covering approximately 10 miles and taking around 5½ hours. Meet at the White Oak trailhead beside the stables at 9 a.m. Along the way, we’ll stop at Cranny Crow, the Almost Heaven Swing, Tusing Cabin, the fire tower, and finally Miller’s Rock before turning around and doing it all over again! Be sure to bring plenty of water, snacks, and comfortable hiking shoes, and come prepared for some of the park’s most iconic views.
