Hanging Rock Ponds The Hanging Rock Off-Highway Vehicle Trail System winds around what was previously a strip mine. This trail system features stunted trees and dozens of small ponds that have since been stocked with fish. The name "Hanging Rock" refers to the nearby village of Hanging Rock, which got its name from a cliff face that seemed to "hang" over the village. Forest Service photo by Kyle Brooks.
Rock House Trail The Rock House Trail is one of the many trail options in the Lake Vesuvius Recreation Area. The out-and-back trail is 0.75 miles long and leads to a large rock overhang. This trail is a great option for those wanting a short, easy experience with fantastic views. Benches are available every few hundred feet, and interpretive signs can be found along the way. The final stretch features a wooden boardwalk that leads to a small deck complete with benches underneath the rock overhang. The main feature of this trail is the large rock overhang. These types of geologic features are commonly called “rock houses” or “rock shelters.” This rock house is made of sandstone formed during the Pennsylvanian Period sometime between 318 million and 299 million years ago. The rock house itself was created more recently when water eroded the upper and lower portions of the sandstone at different rates. The lower portions of the sandstone are softer and could be eroded faster than the harder sections near the top. Rock houses have been important to and loved by people for thousands of years. American Indians used these geologic features for shelter, ceremonies, and more. In the 1800s, southeast Ohioans would use such rock houses for shelter, ceremonies, labor union meetings, and beyond. Some outlaws even infamously used rock houses as secret outposts to hide stolen goods or themselves from the law. Today, many people visit rock houses for their beauty and awe-inspiring grandeur.
