Indian Fort Lookout is a 2 mile moderately trafficked out and back trail located near Berea, Kentucky that features a great forest setting and is rated as moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, running, and nature trips and is best used from June until November. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.
April 10, 2021The Walnut Trail is a dead end, but it is beautiful in the spring time with lots of wild flowers growing along the trail. Very level and peaceful, but I can imagine it will become more weedy and narrow as summer rolls around and vegetation grows. We used it as an opportunity to stretch out our hike to Indian Fort Lookout and enjoyed the extra distance it added. If you're looking for ways to mix up your hikes at the Pinnacles, I highly recommend it.

January 21, 2021A great place with many trails to explore! Beginner, moderate, and more advanced sections! Good place for many. Be careful when it gets muddy, it is really slippery.

December 30, 2020December 28, 2020Great Trail. Recording is off though. Went on to East Pinnacle. Beautiful, though a little muddy
December 21, 2020Beautiful trail and easy to find other trails to extend your hike.
December 19, 2020Beautiful cliff look outs
December 14, 2020Easy but steep hike in first mile, good footing but 600+ feet in less than a mile. Great payoff views and rock formations.
December 12, 2020Trail was aittle soft and wet from the rain night before. Leaf cover on the trail was somewhat of an issue with the mud causing it to be slicker. Overall, it was a gorgeous day, overcast and a little windy but that didn't take away from the views and the hike!
December 9, 2020Super steep in some areas but the path is easy to follow and the rock areas are kind of fun. Beautiful view.
December 5, 2020Multiple trails done today. Good hike up and trails where great. Awesome rock formations and overlooks.
November 28, 2020Great view. Enjoyed the east pinnacle view too! Tough on the knees back down. We found it easier to jog—less impact overall on the knees.
November 28, 2020Steep but fun with great vistas!
November 27, 2020November 18, 2020difficult inclines... beautiful overlook..really hard on knees coming down
