Whitewater Memorial State Park Hot

Whitewater Memorial State Park was established in 1949 as a living memorial to the men and women who served in World War II. It is the result of a community effort in which Fayette, Franklin, Union and Wayne counties joined together to acquire the initial acreage including wooded rolling hills, steep ridges and ravines in addition to level, open fields and a man-made lake.

The Hornbeam Nature Preserve within the park includes an unusual number of hornbeam and hop hornbeam trees. In spring the forest is covered with a dense carpet of wildflowers.

Two-hundred acre Whitewater Lake and access to Brookville Reservoir, along with other recreational facilities make Whitewater Memorial State Park a great family getaway.
