Givhans Ferry State Park, State park in Dorchester County, US

The 1,235-acre park extends along the banks of the Edisto River, featuring wooded landscapes, riverside trails, and four permanent cabins for overnight stays.

Established in 1934, the park was constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps as part of South Carolina's initiative to develop public recreational spaces.

The park preserves the natural heritage of South Carolina's Lowcountry through its blackwater river ecosystem and traditional outdoor recreational activities.

Visitors can access camping facilities, hiking trails, fishing spots, and kayak launches from May to September, with entrance fees ranging from 3 to 6 dollars.

The park marks the endpoint of a 23-mile kayaking route on North America's longest free-flowing blackwater river, connecting with Colleton State Park upstream.
