Description
This is an easy day-trip hike, great for beginners, great for families and to get introduced into hiking.

The trail is a mere 30 minutes to the top where a spectacular 3-tiered waterfall lays. Facing the waterfall there is a closed trail to the top of the falls that is of medium challenge (due to the steepness and one wall that requires climbing - no equipment however is neccessary). The climb to the top is simply spectacular, at the top of the falls two trails begin and camping is allowed 150 feet past the river.
