    Enjoyable trails are well maintained and offer great views of the falls and surrounding areas. Lots of variety. Some of the trails get a bit steep so go at your own pace.  more »

    Beautiful and easy walk up to the falls. About 2 miles. I saw you could drive all the way to the top once I walked up, but it was a nice walk.
