From the parking area, follow the signs to the trailhead. Be sure to get a trail guide at the trailhead for the interpretive markers you will encounter along the way. It is about 3 miles from the campground to the falls one way, with several indian ruins and other interesting features to see along the way. In the summer, the falls is a great place to cool off and have a swim.Photos (click on photo for more detail)
