Rock Bridge Memorial State Park's Boardwalk Trail is a half-mile trail open daily from sunrise to sunset. It takes you past a natural rock bridge, a dam, an old streambed, a spring, a sinkhole and up to a karst window (collapsed sinkhole) known as the Devil's Icebox. This is the entrance of both Devil's Icebox Cave (upstream) and Connor's Cave (downstream).  In addition to being part of a state park, the area near the Rock Bridge was once settled and historically known as Rockbridge Mills. It is recognized as a Boone County Historic Site.
