The Trail
From the parking lot there is a small trail to the left. The trail is unmarked, but visible and easy enough to follow. You can hear the falls from the trail which aids in direction. The trail takes you to the base of the falls. The rocks are very slippery around the falls, so please avoid climbing over rocks along the sides to reach the top.
The same trail you took to get to the falls will take you back to the parking lot. This trail is dog-friendly.
