Alum Hollow Trail
This is a very easy and short hike to the waterfall. It is flat and about 2.5 miles round trip. You will follow a ridge where you wander through the woods. In the winter, you have a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains.
Waterfall and Cave
Continue to follow the Alum Hollow trail. The trail forks to the left and to the right. To the right you will be able to see the waterfall. If you follow the trail to the left, you’ll find the overhanging cliffs right around the corner.
Ranger Trail
This is a very difficult hike that ends at the waterfall. It is very rocky with several steep portions of the trail and about 1.25 miles round trip.Â
