The combination of waterfalls, catwalks along canyon walls, very colorful ferns and plant life make this one the best (and easiest) hikes we've taken. Very easy on the feet (all paved/steps). More

Absolutely packed most of the time...not the most interesting trail, just a cement path, but very scenic and good for kids with the waterfalls and a cave at the end. More

This is one of the most breathtaking hikes for how easy it is to access. Very well maintained trails. All the trails are paved or boardwalk suspended on the sides of the canyon. Lower falls is a great hike for anyone. The upper falls is a bit more of a walk but worth it. The scenery is amazing and exhibits... More

This is an excellent half day hike and if you stick it out until the end its totally worth it! In May there were still a looter of snowy and icy patches but in a few weeks it should all be cleared up. More

Ice cleats are a good idea but you can make it without if you don't mind a little slipping and sliding. We made it to the lower falls which... More

Remarkable what a small river can due to create a canyon. A must see in the summer, but spectacular in winter. A guided tour is best to enjoy all that it has to offer. More
