Volunteers Provide Assistance to Improving to Station Camp Campground
The National Park Service and the Back Country Horsemen of Big South Fork have partnered to replace eight existing metal horse tie-stalls with pipe panel horse corrals at Bear Creek Campground at Big South Fork National River & Recreation Area, in Kentucky. The new horse corrals that are being installed are similar to those recently installed in Station Camp Campground. The corrals are installed to enhance the safety and functionality of equestrian facilities.
“We are delighted to have the Back Country Horsemen of Big South Fork volunteer with the park and helping us to provide an improved campground experience for our equestrian visitors, “said Superintendent Niki Stephanie Nicholas.
Bear Creek Campground opened in 1996 and contains 23 individual sites for equestrian campers as well as non-equestrian campers. Campsites are available for reservation by calling 877-444-6777 or making reservations on www.recreation.gov.
