Hanging Rock, OH

united states

Hanging Rock is a tiny Ohio River community in Lawrence County with just 142 residents, accessible via State Route 7 along the river corridor. The rolling Appalachian foothills create scenic terrain, and Lawrence County Airpark serves the area. Most visitors come from nearby Huntington, West Virginia, or Ironton, Ohio, exploring river heritage sites. The town's name comes from a prominent limestone cliff that has served as a natural landmark for Ohio River travelers for generations.
