Reviews
"The waterfalls were beautiful. There was some snow and ice. Some deep pockets of water on the trail that made it a moderate trail."
"We walked parts of the Red and Blue rim trails to see the two waterfalls, as well as the yellow trail up to the base of the falls. The trails are well marked but can still be tricky to follow in places with the cover fall leaves. I would recommend hiking boots or trail shoes, in some places the trails are steep or a bit muddy. Dogs are welcome on leash, this is a great place to take agile pooches for a hike."
"Easy. I can see how challenging the trails would be in the winter since trails are steeped towards the waterfalls."
"Great trails. The blue trail is a short but very open flat trail with a view of a waterfall. We walked just the segment that took us to the intersection of the red and yellow trail. We started with the yellow trail but it was narrow with a bit of tall grass and with possible ticks we didn’t want to risk it. We backtracked and ended up doing about 4 miles of the red trail. It is mostly shaded along the river. One part gets to be a bit steep but it’s not something a family couldn’t handle. Some parts require you to cross the creek but you can always find a dry path. This can be fun for kids. You don’t really encounter much other hikers, and there was plenty of parking. If you can’t find parking at one entrance you could try the other. Definitely would recommend."
