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.
