Natural Bridge State Park invites young anglers to its annual Kids Fishing Day, presented by Friends of Natural Bridge State Park. This event is designed to introduce children to the joys of fishing in a beautiful and educational outdoor setting.
Kids Fishing Day will take place on Saturday, April 4, from 7:30 a.m. to noon, at Cedar Creek, which will be stocked with rainbow trout and runs under the Natural Bridge. Children can keep up to six fish and must bring their own pole, bait and gear.
Admission is free for children 12 and younger from 7 a.m. to noon and cost $6 per child once Kids Fishing Day concludes at noon. Admission is $9 per person for visitors 13 and older all day. No adults may fish, but there must be at least one paying adult with participating children.
Access to Cedar Creek Trail requires navigating a stairway with 137 steps. Accommodations for those with accessibility needs can be made upon request at the park’s visitor center or by calling (540) 291-1326.
Kids Fishing Day is sponsored by Friends of Natural Bridge State Park, Siler Trucking Company, Bizzee B Catering, Spencer Home Center, Upper James River Resource and Conservation Development Council and Blue Ridge Deli.
