Confirmed from Chair Factory Falls - Greenway Corridor's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Park with a waterfall reachable via a hike that involves descending steep hills and features gravel paths and benches.
What runners say about Chair Factory Falls - Greenway Corridor
“It's a very beautiful falls and a nice walk to get there.”
I've been wanting to see Chair Factory Falls and I finally did it! The falls are beautiful! It was a tough walk for me, but I am so glad I went. If I ever make it back there, I am going to bring a sturdy friend to throw me over their back like a sack of potatoes on the way back up that hill!
Very nice walk that ends at the falls. Totally worth a look when you are on the greenway corridor in lake county. Bikes were not allowed. There was a place to park them at the beginning. Restroom was close.
It's a very beautiful falls and a nice walk to get there. When you're driving down I-90, you would never know this existed as you're passing by.
Loved hiking this creek! Mid april visit! What a fun time. We went in at Jordan creek but took the river down to chair factory falls and also went further up past jordan creek park. There were at least 4 other waterfalls all able to be walked up and over if you go up creek from chair factory.
