Overview

This moderately difficult trail goes from the Lower Whitewater Falls trailhead to the viewpoint at Upper Whitewater Falls.

Description

The trail is mostly singletrack, with a number of creek crossings and small waterfalls before arriving at the spectacular Upper Whitewater Falls. Mostly managable, with moderate elevation change. Trail is in good condition. Some portions do have steps, and the final push to the falls is on wooden steps.
