As spring move onward, I wanted to take an opportunity to bring you up to date on the lake and beach opportunities at Hanging Rock State Park. In addition to the wonderful trails, wildlife and vistas to enjoy, you now have additional hours to enjoy the lake and beach area.
Hanging Rock Lake
Fishing is permitted year round on the lake for bass, sunfish, and catfish. Anyone over 15 years old must have a NC fishing license. Fish from the shore, the wheelchair accessible pier, or from a rental boat. Only the swim beach and stone dam are off limits to fishing. There is no fee for fishing.
Rowboats and Canoes are rented for use on the lake weekends April, May, September, and October, and daily Memorial Day-August. Spring and fall hours are 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Summer hours are 10:00 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. Rental cost is $5 for the first hour and $3 for each succeeding hour. To protect the lake from weed introduction, private boats are not allowed.
The Lake Refreshment Stand is open on weekends April, May, September, and October from 10:00 to 5:00 and is open daily to 5:45 Memorial Day through August.
If you are a regular visitor to the park, welcome and if you haven't visited the park, what are you waiting for?
