Hidden within the more than 2,270 acres of Rock Bridge Memorial State Park in Columbia is an abundance of natural gems, including a natural rock bridge and Devil's Icebox.
Connors Cave Trail, a .07-mile trek, will lead you straight to the unique rock formation. The cave does tend to flood, so you might not want to visit if it's rained heavily in recent days.
One of the highlights of the park, Devil's Icebox is a double sinkhole that features an underground stream. Tours of the cave are currently unavailable to help protect its resident bats.
Rock Bridge Memorial State Park is also popular with bikers and horseback riders, so you have several relaxing ways to explore the park and its natural wonders.
