I'm from Columbus, Georgia the nextdoor neighbor to Phenix City,Alabama. Never heard of this beautiful park. Alabama, beautiful state with great people. Good neighbors.

Absolutely love this video! The only thing is the music is irritating and made me extremely anxious. We had to mute it for most of the video.

It's Beautiful! The atmosphere is loaded with negative ions, perfect for a balanced health! I love to listen to you sharing;; NOT that repetitive music!

Thank you for sharing Dismals with the world. I live about 55 miles South of Dismals and have visited it quite a few times. At times through the years, Dismals has struggled to stay open due to various reasons. It can really be called a hidden gem, at this time there isn’t even a sign on the major highway that you turn off of to go to Dismals. That’s been the main problem through the years with owners just not having enough cash to do heavy advertising. I am glad to see that it has been updated greatly since the last time I was there. There wasn’t a restaurant or gift shop the last time I was there. I don’t know about now, but the water that created the waterfall at the beginning of the video was a wide stream close to the path that you walk down to the gift store. It was wide and deep enough that swimming was allowed in it. I will say that if you have weak ankles of knees, the path can be rough. You also have to watch your step for roots and rocks. After you have walked the trail, the steps coming back up is a breath grabber. Dismals is a great lil place.

You should have stayed until it was dark and seen the dismalites. Glowing worms the canyon is known for, that make the canyon walls look like stars.

I live in Alabama and didn't know about this place. Unfortunately being a senior citizen, this would be too strenuous for me. I have enjoyed watching it from your vantage point of view.

If you liked hiking around these boulders I'd also suggest horse pens 40 and Cherokee village

I live in Central Alabama. I have heard of Dismal Canyon, but have never been there. I hope to make it some day. Thank you for the video!

I love it. I'm from Alabama and I've never heard of Dismal Canyon until today. Great video. Thank you for sharing. God bless you 🙏❤ 😊

Thank you for a great video.......nature at its best.

Loved going with you guys through the trails. I didn't like the music either.

Great job. Lovely family.

Fantastic video, I felt like I was there with you.

Not for the faint hearted! Thanks for the tour 🌿🌿🌿

Thanks for sharing. I live in Lower Alabama and have always wanted to go visit the canyon but unable to go. This video is as if I was there with you. I enjoyed it. Thank you

Beautiful, my home state , never heard of it . Thanks for sharing .

Amazing! I have been to Alabama several times but never heard of this place. Thank you for sharing your expedition!

Great video. Getting youth out into nature is the best thing that you can do for them.

Looks amazing! Such a beautiful place ❤

Amazingly beautiful ! Hi Xavier 😊 looks like you guy's are having a lot of fun 😊

Nice to see y'all! This place is is beautiful and magical in away

Thank you for sharing! I'm hoping to visit this in May!

Hey I’ve been there for a night tour of the glow worms and couldn’t see this beauty. This place is in the middle of nowhere, phone reception was not happening except my friend’s AT&T phone. Thanks for posting this gorgeous footage.

Great video! We live in Lincoln and been wanting to go! Fun fact! I knew this, but copied it from their website so I hope you guys were there after dark. "Past twilight the canyon lights up with tiny bioluminescent creatures we call Dismalites. These "glowworms" require a select habitat to survive and are unique to only a few places on Earth. They are “close cousins” of the rare glowworms found in Australia and New Zealand."

7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

This is sick bro 🔥

The music is nerve racking

Nice video. Looks like a place I’d like to visit. I hadn’t heard of it. Glad to see your son hiking and learning about the outdoors. You might consider some different music background. It seemed too repetitive. Overall, a winning video!

Nice looking place and good looking family.

Beautiful, looks kind of similar to the slot canyons in the southwest except there it is desert.

Thought I knew all of Alabama but, never saw this Kool place. Great video but hated the obnoxious music..

As of 6/2024 their website says the place is closed due to damage from an ice storm. It’s a privately owned park w/ an admission fee.

Never heard of it. Born and raised in 'Bama. I'll have to google it. The boulders remind me of Horse Pens 40.

New subscriber here man! My wife and I are thinking of going in October, it looked really cool!

I am from Tennessee and I have not heard of it either. I am going to have to visit!

You need to check out Walls of Jerusalem, in Alabama, and Tennessee at the line

Im 8n the AL line and checked on the cabin rates...WOW but its also saying closed??

Great. Thsnks

So this was stripped bare of the artifacts and made into a tourist destination. Can you imagine how gorgeous it was 500 years ago before people from everywhere, started coming through ?

It's closed while they clean up from a terrible ice storm in January.

Today, July 1, 2024, their website says they are temporarily closed😮😢

In What county in Alabama is this?

Why havent you mentioned thr dismalites in the cave only one of 5 caves globally with glow worms . Im a local good video but left out a good bit.

First one to get the notification

Shhhhh. We are trying to keep it a secret….

Ok den i see he gotz him one yea ok right right right

Glow worms were not mentioned

Loved the video but the music is ruining the time. That electronic music on a three second loop is horrible.

Turn the music off!

The music is awful. The tempo is agitating. The visuals are excellent. Re-post with soothing music & you’ll have a winner.

I can't imagine driving 7 hours and just walking with my head down the whole time. Super cheesy video end the music killed it

It's beautiful but overpriced.

Just wondered why the only person in your video who seemed to have a good time was you., your wife, and child neither one smiled, nor once. There was no looking around at the beauty around. Everyone seemed to be in a big hurry and not interested in the hike at all. Only exception was when the child was walking in the water, but even then he did not amule.

The music ruins the video.z

BAD MUSIC,AWFUL, DISTRACTING.GOOD VIDEO.

Would have been much better with the natural sounds of the scenery and not the stupid short and irritating background loop.

Turn off that awful music!!
