St. Stephens Historical Park preserves Alabama's territorial capital history while offering outdoor recreation including paddling on its 70-acre quarry lake and exploring over 15 miles of scenic trails for hiking and horseback riding. The crystalline quarry lake features a sandy beach with shallow sections ideal for children and deeper areas for confident swimmers. Visitors enjoy boat launches providing access to both the lake and the adjacent Tombigbee River for fishing adventures. The historic townsite, an active archaeological site, and natural surroundings create a unique backdrop for outdoor exploration and family activities. An 18-hole disc golf course adds another recreational dimension to this multifaceted destination.
