What Is Bola Creek Rest Area Like?
There isn’t a lot at Bola Creek Rest Area but it’s not a bad place to stop and have some lunch – especially if you’ve just walked The Forest Path.
There is a small clearing that features a single picnic table where you can sit and have lunch.
From the picnic table you can walk down to Bola Creek which is quite a nice spot to hang out and for kids to do some exploring and play.
There are lots of wide flat rocks you can walk around on and there are 3 waterway tunnels that allow the Bola Creek to pass under Lady Carrington Drive.
The waterway tunnels under Lady Carrington Drive make a cool spot to take some photos if you’re into that.
The tunnels also echo a bunch which is fun for kids to go in their and scream “Coooo Eeeee” and to hear their voice echo.
