Confirmed from Victor Falls City Park'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.
Local park featuring a waterfall, picnic areas, and trails, plus a playground.
What runners say about Victor Falls City Park
“This waterfall park is a small, cute and beautiful neighborhood type.”
It's on a Winding road so be careful. Gravel parking lot w/honeybuck and park hours,you can almost hear the falls from the trail. The main waterfall is really nice you can walk to the crest and behind the main falls there are a couple of small falls feeding it.
This is a small park with a nice waterfall. I don't think it's really intended for hikers, but great for someone who's not physically up to a long trail, since you park very close to the waterfall. We visited because it's close to George's Bonney Lake Tavern, and it made a perfect half-hour side trip.
This is a great little park, although not for the faint of heart, or those with fears of heights! Make sure you are wearing good hiking boots! Don't wear tennis shoes, or fashion boots, they will likely create a safety concern.
Such a cool little park. If you're scared of hights stay away from the edge of the falls! Trails can be steep. It was a fun adventure! Nice little picnic area, and lots of parking.
