We hiked to Cold Boiling Lake from Kings Creek picnic area on the way to Bumpass Hell. From the parking to the lake was flat and easy. The lake is pretty, but boiling is an exaggeration. There are...

It was a lovely short hike to cold boiling lake from the king’s creek picnic trail. Good amount of park with bathrooms. Trail has a bit of a hill to start then is flat. Just a little disappointing that you can’t really see and bubbling, at least when we were there. One tiny area with occasional tiny bubbles- if we were looking hard for a bit we never would have noticed.

Nice quick 1.4mi r/t hike from the parking lot, but pretty disappointing. Just a lake and there were no "boiling" gases.
