For our adventure seeking guests, a short drive from the cottage and thrills to last a lifetime.

Did you know McCreary County is home to one of Kentucky’s premier rock climbing destinations? 🧗

Adventure seekers from across the region come to the Big South Fork National River & Recreation Area to experience towering sandstone cliffs and incredible climbing opportunities.

The area near Blue Heron Mining Community features approximately 35 established sport and traditional climbing routes, with an additional 20 routes just a short hike away. Climbs range from beginner-friendly challenges to advanced overhanging routes, making it a destination for climbers of many skill levels.

Whether you’re an experienced climber looking for your next adventure or simply enjoy watching others conquer the cliffs, Big South Fork offers yet another reason to explore McCreary County.

⚠️ Climbing is an inherently dangerous activity. Climbers should have the proper equipment, experience, and knowledge to climb safely. The National Park Service does not maintain climbing bolts or fixed gear. Before your trip, contact the Big South Fork National River & Recreation Area for current climbing information, regulations, and conditions by calling the Kentucky Visitor Information Center at (606) 376-3787 or visiting the park’s climbing information page.

Don’t take our word for it. This is what our guests are saying…
