Make sure to visit during the salmon run!

Runner Notes

After 0.6 miles, the trail turns into a well-packed dirt trail.

Description

This trail starts a few dozen feet to the west of the restrooms. This trail loops down and next to the falls, before crossing a bridge over the river. The path will wind its way back along the river, and then over it again, where the trail ends.

Flora & Fauna

Many ferns, salmon, and pines along the trail.
