We did this hike for the first time. It is just what it describes with no surprises. Trail is pretty easy, but has some roots, mud and fallen trees. All in all, very doable. Nice water falls at t… Full review by Lisa S

Beautiful walk and falls. Not a lot of people on the trails. Glad we wore boots as it had rained and was very slippery. Full review by Z1767HIcarolh

If the trail is clear, small children should have no issues going to the falls. My last trek there in early winter 2018, the trail had a few places with down trees that would make it hard for small children and those with walking issues to make it - but the FS should have cleared all that by now (we can hope). It's a fairly short hike in with lots of shade, so even on hot days, it would / should be a nice hike up. The best time to go of course is a day or 2 after a good rain - yet that also makes going in a bit harder due to mud and puddles of water that may stand for a few days. Don't let that stop you though - go in and enjoy the falls. Mooney Falls just up the FS Road a bit is about the same hike in and since you are there already - see both of them. Not spectacular, but worth the short hikes to see them.
