Pinkham Falls Route

Trail Overview

Pinkham Falls is a favorite among locals of the Libby area and those visiting Lake Koocanusa. While it is a short route, the entrance is on private land with nearby residences. Be respectful and don't cross onto private land while hiking. This route is unmaintained, and you will need to pack out everything you bring in. There are no bathrooms or facilities of any kind. There is space for camping near the waterfall, though it is overused, and debris has been left from past users. The route has several rocky outcrop ledges and steep climbs to traverse. Avoid creating new routes or widening existing routes. Most of the route is in the Kootenai National Forest, and no permits are required. To see the lower falls, you must cross the creek and hike downstream to view it.
