The land for Lynch's Woods was deeded to Newberry County and the City of Newberry in the early 1930's by Rev. Elijah Lynch and the park was established in 1934, hence the name Lynch's Woods.
Today this park includes a restroom facility, an education/information kiosk, 7.5 miles of hiking and biking trails, 6 miles of equestrian trails, parking areas, picnic tables, and 21 traditional Geocaches along the 4.2-mile gravel road.
The park has also been incorporated into the Palmetto Trail as the Gateway to the Upstate, called The Lynch’s Woods Passage that is open to visitors year round with no charge for use.
