Lamar Alexander Rocky Fork State Park

Lamar Alexander Rocky Fork State Park (RFSP) is a 2,265 acres (9.17 km2)[1] state park in Unicoi County in East Tennessee.

It is situated in the Blue Ridge region of the Appalachian Mountains, close to the Tennessee-North Carolina state line.

The park is adjacent to the Cherokee National Forest, and it is in close proximity to the Appalachian Trail.

Hiking and mountain biking are permitted on a network of old road beds, and fishing is allowed in Rocky Fork and South Indian Creeks, below and downstream of the State Park Main Entrance Gate.

[2] The park was renamed from "Rocky Fork State Park" in January 2019 in honor of then-Senator Lamar Alexander, who was in his last term.
