Description
It gets a little steep at times, not suitable for a stroller or people who have mobility issues. There is a lookout point to see the waterfall, however you can get closer if you take the lower path which is mostly rocks up to the base of the waterfall. Gorgeous year round, especially in the fall. The park is also great for bike riding in the spring/summer months. There is also a big hill, perfect for sledding in winter.
