Caesars Head State Park joins Jones Gap State Park and other natural areas to comprise the Mountain Bridge Wilderness Area. The lookout tower at Caesars Head sits at 3,266 feet and provides a panoramic view of Table Rock and Pinnacle mountains, nearby valleys, and other distant peaks of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Raven Cliff Falls, situated along one of the park's many hiking trails, is one of the highest waterfalls in the eastern United States, and is a popular destination for both day and overnight hikers.

There are over fifty miles of hiking trails in the area, and the park is also an access point to the Foothills Hiking Trail via the Gum Gap Trail.  This hike to Matthews Creek is a popular one and you need a permit if you plan to camp overnight.  On the hike, you'll have great views of Raven Cliff Falls, cross a wire cable over Matthews Creek, and walk across a suspension bridge over the falls.
