Hanging Rock State Park Access in Stokes County provides multiple entry points for paddling and fishing on Indian Creek and the Dan River, with the main visitor center access offering parking and facilities. The Indian Creek Trail (3.

7 miles one-way) follows the creek downstream to the Dan River Access off Flinchum Road, passing two waterfalls in the first half-mile before becoming narrow and rocky with several stream crossings.

Additional access points include the Dan River Access and Lower Cascades parking area, with the park offering year-round fishing opportunities and seasonal boat rentals at Hanging Rock Lake.
