Fern Falls is a 60 foot waterfall on Fern Creek downstream of Fern Lake. It's about 3 miles from Fern Lake trailhead. We visited on a shuttle hike from Bear Lake to Fern Lake. We didn't arrive...

Beautiful falls with quick access to the side of the water. Flowers growing everywhere. Mist from the falls cools travelling hikers! Worth the trek and climb up from the trailhead!!
