Bell Park

A new Henderson County park opened today in Saluda, offering 1.8 miles of walking trails and an observation deck next to a rushing waterfall. The park is named Bell Park in honor of local summer camp pioneers Frank and Calla Bell, who headed Camp Mondamin and Camp Green Cove. Bell Park continues their legacy by providing opportunities for people to connect with nature.

Bell Park is located in Saluda on Spartanburg Highway (176) just south of the bridge over the Green River Gorge. There is a small parking area on the north side of the road.

From the parking area, a short walk and several flights of stairs lead to an observation deck with a bench next to the waterfall. The park also offers 1.8 miles of rolling, forested trails that are open to walking, hiking, and running.
