Description

This trail leaves the southwest corner of the park's parking lot, passing between several picnic tables among the trees before narrowing and becoming a true singletrack. A short way along the trail, an overlook provides views up the river above the falls, and some remnants of the historic mills can be seen below. The trail continues through the woods, with fences along some portions to to protect from the drop off the bluffs to the river below. The trail rejoins the main waterfall access route just above the overlook above the falls.
