Confirmed from Honey Run Waterfall'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 offering multiple trails, a rocky waterfall and access to the Kokosing River.
What runners say about Honey Run Waterfall
“A lot of beautiful views they even have areas that you can walk for the handicapped”
“Recommended for a day of nice views, and peaceful walks through nature.”
Great opportunity to seek wildlife, enjoy a nature, hike, and see the falls. Honey Run offers multiple trails, all ranging from a half mile and up. Trials are marked well, relatively easy to traverse, but are deep enough in the woods, that it provides you a great chance to touch base with nature.
This place is absolutely gorgeous. I have been here a few times and still never explored all of it ! Very nice waterfall and trail out to the beautiful kokosing river. Nice little area of knox county
A beautiful place! I love the flowers , waterfall, creek, everything is so neat! Perfect for family time. Short easy hikes and great paths to follow! I had a blast taking photos and seeing everyone enjoy the beauty...
Honey run falls was more than expected... We accompanied the waterfall with the Pine Knob trail, which was really nice short hike through the woods. The waterfall was partially frozen which made it even more beautiful.
