Customer Reviews

★★★★☆ 4.0 Brian F · Feb 2026

Super steep, narrow, and slippery. Hard to find the start of the trail. No trailhead marker. Another reviewer provided excellent details to find it. Worth the effort but choose your footholds and tree branches wisely. And be ready for some scrambling to get back up to the car

★★★★★ 5.0 Sharon Kilzer · Nov 2024

The parking for this fall is just a pull off. The hike to the fall is almost straight down. The last bit of the "trail" could use a rope. I sat and scooched down. There are rocks and rocks can get slick. It's a beautiful fall and worth the trip down to see it.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Brian Coburn · Sep 2023

Nice falls at the end of a very steep, but short clamber down to. Park at the pullout where Google Maps (or Waze) has the parking spot marked. You will see that in the photos. The trail is unmarked but starts just to the right of the large tree at the right side of the pull-off. Parking for about two vehicles there, with a couple more pull-offs just around the bend. You will be able to hear the falls below you from the gravel road. Take your time down the trail, as there are roots and trees to hang on to most of the way down (and back up). The trail comes out right at the falls lower edge, so be careful on the slippery rocks.

★★★★★ 5.0 Kipp White · Mar 2023

WOW!! Very short, very steep, and very slippery hike to see this one. But well worth the effort if you're an experienced hiker. You'll have the place to yourself. I would not recommend doing the upper falls. Very dangerous and there is no trail.

★★★★★ 5.0 Mark Oleg Ozboyd · May 2018

Very short hike to an outstanding secluded waterfall. The path, while distinct, is extremely steep and also muddy at the end, so be careful. The falls is at least 45 feet high and is quite impressive. It's only a 15-min hike to the waterfall!
