The trail leading to the falls is mostly flat or downhill and clear, so even novice hikers and smaller children will be able to handle the trek. You’ll also get to go over a little bridge, which is always fun.

You can swim here in the summer, though plan on arriving early to beat the crowds. You should also be sure to supervise any children or pets near the falls.

Dogs are welcome to tackle this trail with their owners, but should be kept on-leash. Prepare for a bit of an uphill journey on the way back, but nothing too strenuous.
