    Located on the southernmost tip of the Appalachian mountain chain, Cheaha is the oldest state park in Alabama. Imagine 2,799 acres of quartzite boulders and ancient wind-warped trees at 2,407 feet above sea level, often above the clouds, surrounded by 392,567 acres of the Talladega National Forest including 7,245 acres of wilderness. Quiet surroundings, a cliffside restaurant, a variety of overnight accommodations, the highest pool in Alabama, a dog park, museums, hiking trails, a six acre lake, and a historic timber framed group lodge that can be rented for weddings, family reunions, or business retreats. Cheaha State Park seems far removed from civilization; however, this park is only 30 minutes away from several historic downtown areas. Discover breathtaking views, surreal sunsets, waterfalls, and diverse recreational activities. Access: The park recommends traveling on the Talladega Scenic Drive (Alabama Highway 281) which is well maintained, wide and appropriate for large RVs. See more..
