Description
This out-and-back hike is only one and half miles if you opt to do the whole thing. From the parking area, take the Moss Glen Falls Trail. There are some boardwalks along the way that will help you keep your feet dry. As you approach the falls, the grade gets a bit steep and can be slippery so watch your footing. Many people opt to head up the creek bed to reach the base of the 3-tier 125-foot falls. After enjoying some time at the base of the falls, head up the Falls Overlooks trail which takes you to some great views of the upper falls and the gorge beyond. Head back the way you came to round out the hike.
