This is natures amazement and wondrous beauty. Absolutely worth the hike. However, I'd have to say this is not for beginners, toddlers (unless you plan on backpacking/carrying them throughthe stepper areas), or anyone that is not in good health. Also, bring your bug spray.

This is a beautiful place to visit but please be aware there are rattlesnakes. What I was at the top, I went just to the left of the main trail and there he was within a few feet, thankfully I just stopped and apparently didn't threaten him so he just slide away, THANK GOD. BTW it is a good hike, fairly steep actually felt for a minute like I was on an out west trail if you know what I mean...

Awesome, worth it. Trail is not for outshape or beginners. It's very steep, but you can manage. 2-3hrs up depending how much you stop, and about 1 hr down. We stopped to enjoy the views. The trail has great views and bridges over the creek. Like I said worth the sweat.

Pictures can't explain how beautiful it is. The hike up to the falls was relaxing and kind if rough once you start the inclines, but once you reach the top its all worth it. I won't spoil the breath taking reaction😊 Just know it's BEAUTIFUL!!!

Questions & Answers

Where does the official trail start? Do you have to enter the official Jones Gap State Park entrance or is it possible to reach the falls via the YMCA near Pretty Place?

Contrary to what rangers and maps will lead you to believe...you can indeed hike down from a pull off area right past pretty place. Just follow my footsteps :p by no means am I encouraging novice trail hikers nor do I assume any liability if you choose to do so. When in doubt, just follow the water.

I wouldn't recommend it, do not try to go to the top of the falls, there have been several injuries
