| Fall Creek Falls |
| These impressive falls drop 256 feet into the deep gorge below. The waterfalls are one of the highest in the United States east of the Rocky Mountains. Fall Creek feeds the falls, and the creek is dammed upstream at Fall Creek Falls Lake to provide a constant flow. The most popular overlook is easily accessible. A parking area and short walk take you to a beautiful view of the falls. A trail to the left of the overlook will take you to the base of the falls. The trail is rocky, steep, and can be strenuous. The round trip hike is only .8 miles, so even though it can be difficult, the length makes it doable by most. Some beautiful ancient rocks, overhangs, virgin forest and views of Fall Creek Falls will be experienced along the way. Another view of Fall Creek Falls can be seen by taking the Paw Paw trail from the Nature Center. This trail is a 2.6 mile loop, but is mostly flat and would be described as easy to moderate. This view of the falls is restricted in summertime when the leaves are on the trees (see image to right). In late fall, winter, and early spring, this view is much more rewarding. For those who have seen the falls from the overlook many times, this differing perspective is a nice change of pace. |
