About Natural Tunnel State Park

Natural Tunnel State Park is a stunning natural wonder located in the Appalachian region. The park boasts a more than 850-foot-long tunnel, carved through a limestone ridge over thousands of years, which has been dubbed the "Eighth Wonder of the World" by William Jennings Bryan. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking views from Lovers Leap and explore the park's diverse facilities, including two campgrounds, cabins, picnic areas, an amphitheater, a visitor center, a camp store, and a gift shop. The park offers a range of activities, such as cave tours, canoe trips on the Clinch River, and environmental education programs at the Cove Ridge Center. The Wilderness Road historic area and a swimming pool with a 100-foot slide are also popular attractions. The trails are easy to navigate, and the public restrooms are well-maintained, with no signs of litter or vandalism. Guests praise the park's stunning natural beauty, including the impressive rock formation of the tunnel and the surrounding cliffs that partially surround and tower over visitors. The park is dog-friendly, with designated areas for picnics and large gatherings. For those who struggle with inclines, a chairlift is available to transport visitors to the tunnel floor.
