You can camp at Rock Cut. This park is home to an abundant fauna of aquatic birds, and wild animals. You will find more than 100 types of wildflowers within the park, offering a spectacular show every spring and summer. The deciduous trees, including many maples, dazzle every time during the Indian summer, and the change of leaves in the fall.
