Confirmed from Diana's Baths' 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.
Flat, 0.6-mi. hike to a scenic group of small waterfalls, rock ledges & pools along Lucy Brook.
What runners say about Diana's Baths
“Perfect for a quick walk if you don’t have time to do anything longer and you still get some beautiful views.”
Parking is in an open gravel parking lot. There is a box at the entry to the trail where you pay through honor system. Restrooms are located at the entry too. Nice hike through lush forest next to the stream. There are small ponds and waterfalls past Diana's Bath.
Stopped by to see this waterfall and realized how long the walk would be, I'm no hiker! Got an amazing picture instead. Would go if the waterfalls were closer, maybe in the future they can change that.
GET THERE EARLY. Yes, you will probably have to wait for parking... We got there at 1pm on a Tuesday and had to wait 40 minutes to park (there is no other parking or even road side parking near by). The hike was a bit further than I thought it would be... About 3/4 of a mile through the woods.
We parked at a random spot and walked down the trail of around 0.5 miles. We weren’t sure if we wanted to go but reaching there, we realized evening couldn’t be any better than it. It was super easy to fall in love with the place and the water for sure. It felt like water is coming right from glacier I.e.
