Confirmed from Waterfalls Area'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.
Public park with a restroom, picnic tables, and multiple walking trails.
What runners say about Waterfalls Area
“Beautiful area and a very clean park.”
“Beautiful little park too eat lunch in your car when it's cold”
Beautiful area. Stairs go right down to the water below the dam. Fishing is allowed. Covered Picnic area available. Walking path right next to the river. Plenty of parking available on both sides of the river.
Small spot to park your car and walk to waterfalls. There are better view and bigger parking from other side of a river. Nice walking / biking trail.
A new favorite place to walk and watch nature! Paved walking area makes it easy to walk in bad weather!
