Very nice paved, steep path down to a nice waterfall nearly 20’ tall. Excellent spot for a picnic. The north were chirping and the sound of the creek was very peaceful. It is located between a HS and a newer neighborhood. Saw less than 10 folks in the middle of a pleasant afternoon.

Lovely short, paved trail connecting a couple neighborhoods. Cool bridge in the center/valley where you can look at the falls and creek.

Hidden Falls for sure! Nice little spot tucked away in a newer neighborhood, calm paved downhill 30% grade, wide trail, good for moderate exercise, IG pics. There's a beautiful wooden bridge, 1 picnic table with a view, and nice tall trees to stretch your neck up towards. Dogs ok on leash, trash can and bags at the top of the trail. I like the new food carts on Sunnyside too, would've stopped beforehand to have a picnic. Next time! Neighborhood street parking

Always a short, pretty hike in a semi-urban oasis. More and more houses are being built around the entrance (paved) path but the natural area makes you forget you’re in anything but a forest environment. The path is steep down to the falls but fairly short.

How do you get down to the water area?

The paved path gets you from the roads and parking areas down to the bridge and sitting area. To get down to the water, you have to go over/through the fence and down a steep cliff. There are a lot of signs telling you not to do this. If you really want to get down there, your best bet is to start at the trailhead on either Nightingale Ave. or Cherry Blossom Way. Those two paths connect to each other, but they also connect to the path that goes down to the bridge. Follow that steep path down. When it takes a hard left, stay on the right side and look down the cliff as you walk along the fence. You should see the spot that people use to go up and down. It's a steep dirt path with steps and handholds here and there. Stay safe if you choose to go down there. Slow and steady making sure each handhold and step is secure.

Its in a naborhood. So its street parking. I typically go in the evening and there is always parking at that time. At the top of the trail there is a school. Its like 162nd i think.
