One-way loop trail: Ash Cave is reached by walking a wheelchair accessible trail from the parking area leading hikers through a gorge lined with hemlocks. Those in wheelchairs can turn around here, while others must continue up the steps and along the beautiful upper trail back to the parking lot.
Towering hemlocks, a cascading waterfall, and a wide recess cave make Ash Cave one of Hocking Hills State Park's most popular hiking trails. Part of the trail leading to the cave is asphalt and easily accessible for wheelchairs, dogs on leash, and strollers.
