Buck’s Pocket State Park

Buck’s Pocket State Park is a beautiful and secluded 2,000-acre park nestled in a natural pocket of the Appalachian Mountain chain in northeast Alabama. The park offers 20 miles of hiking trails, fishing, eagle watching during winter months, picnicking, and primitive camping.

Buck’s Pocket is particularly spectacular in fall, when the hardwood forest turns brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold against the dramatic canyon backdrop. A wonderful half-day or full-day excursion from Bear Creek Log Cabins.
