This information sign about Rock Spring is located at a pull-out along the Natchez Trace Parkway north of the Tennessee River in Lauderdale County AL.
The sign reads as follows:
"ROCK SPRING
Rock Spring Nature Trail offers you an opportunity to explore a small natural spring as it bubbles forth from the ground. Small fish dart about a deep pool created as the stream wandered through rich bottom lands soil and limestone rock. Vegetation and trees change as you move through an abandoned field past the stream onto a rocky hillside.
After completing the 20 minute walk you may decide to pull off your shoes and dangle your feet in the swift cool waters.
