Beautiful Chewacla State Park was created by the Civilian Conservation Corporation or C.C.C. in the late 1930’s. It was an initiative started by Franklin Roosevelt under his New Deal program to combat the Great Depression. You can still see the influence of the C.C.C. in its many stone creations from the cabins to the dam.
There is a 26 acre lake with stream feeding and one stream flowing out. The lake has many varieties of fish typical for Alabama.
There are several trails throughout the 696 acres of park, one of which goes past the waterfall. Unique rock formations and a variety of trees, flowers, and wildlife can be found throughout the park. There is also a playground and a designated swimming are with a diving platform.
The park offers three different types of camping. Primitive, Water/Electricity, and Full Hook-up. Chewacla Park also has small and large cabins along the lakeside.
There are many pavilions within the park. They are an excellent way to have family reuions, birthday parties, or a graduation celebration.
The cache is located in Chewacla State Park in Auburn, Alabama. There is a $2.00 per person entrance fee. The park is open from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. During daylight savings time, the park is open later, but you need to verify the time the park closes. The cache is hidden in the woods just off of trails that run through the park.

Geocaching is allowed by the State of Alabama Park system and you need to obey all of the park rules and regulations of the park. A regular size lock-n-lock.
