My family loves this area. We come up and visit every year or 2. It's a great hike that's pretty easy for most people. There's trails, waterfalls & river pools showcasing nature's beauty. It's short money to enter and isn't too busy on most weekdays. Weekends definitely crowd up more but it's still worth it.

What a great hike! Flume Gorge is beautiful. As you hike through the gorge you will see a few waterfalls, granite gorge walls, flumes, covered bridges, caves, natural stone formations, and some nice views of the surrounding mountains. Very scenic for sure! You can go at your own pace on this hike and spend as much time as you want. Though most people probably take about 1 1/2 to two hours. Viewpoints are setup along the trail to view the best spots. You will want to take many photos as you go along. Also, both Liberty Gorge and Flume Gorge are a part of the hike. You should purchase tickets ahead of time to save money. This gorge is a little bigger and better than nearby Lost River Gorge, but both places offer a good time and both are worth doing!

I purchased ticket online for $19. Walk in price is $21. I think $19 is too expensive for a state park. It was a very nice hike though. It took me about an hour and 45 minutes. I stopped several times to take photos. Its steep moderate hike. There are wooden stairs that lead to the waterfalls. Wooden stairs are wet, so be careful.

Fascinating and exciting hike experience. Hike for round trip is about an hour. There are several scenic spots to enjoy. Part of the hike is wood surface, so make sure you wear something that is not slippery. Also rain coats wouldn't be a bad idea.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

How far a hike is it?

Anna Conroy | Aug 24, 2018
Vikas Anand | Aug 24, 2018

It's a 2 mile home round trip from the visitor center, but you can take a short bus shuttle in which case just the hike within the gorge is left and that is short and mostly on wooden walkways. The overall hike is easy but nice. A lot of folks take the bus in and walk back out.

is 2 miles round trip or one way?

Devori Lercher | Aug 23, 2020
David “Tale” Lawrence | Aug 23, 2020

The longest trail is two miles round trip. There is a shorter loop that comes back from Avalanche Falls and Bear Cave, along the Rim Trail that goes back to Table Rock around the basically one way section through the narrow part of the gorge. You can make it even shorter by taking the shuttle bus up to just below Table Rock. The longer two mile loop includes the covered bridge and Wolf's Den that the shorter trip along the gorge doesn't include.
