Description
The Falls Loop is really a misnomer. The Falls Loop (North) is more of a bypass with straighter, less technical but steeper terrain. Since both ends are intersections and not trailheads, they're typically ridden separately. You'd typically choose either the Fall Loops (North) or the Falls Loop (South) path to connect Jimmy's Run back to the Ridge Trail (1), but you wouldn't hike it as a loop. This trail has views of waterfalls.
