Really beautiful place with a huge beach to hang out on. The road to the parking area is very rough. You definitely need a high clearance vehicle, my 4runner did fine. There is one spot that will complete bottom out your vehicle. If you don't have 4wd use your best judgment. It's not in an easy spot to get to.

Hiked here the day before the snowstorm. The hike itself isn’t bad at all and clearly marked. Driving to the trailhead is a bit daunting so I’d suggest an SUV to get over the craters. Overall it was a beautiful hike with an awesome waterfall. I see the other reviews complain of crowds but due to the weather and inability to swim, it was just us.

There are parking but it's not like parking spots it's a dirt road and just pull up on the side of the road however if you have four wheel drive you can drive down to the bottom and there's a few spots down there

No. Just be prepared to hike and carry all of your stuff. No trash cans or restrooms, so be sure to be prepared for that as well.

The water next to the river side is great for wading. Perfectly safe within reason.

Where is the best place to park for cars that do not have 4 wheel drive?

Marissa Wilson | Feb 10, 2020

Off the main road to get there. You can drive onto the access road to the trail but I wouldn't go too far without a 4x4. It's a long walk so bring plenty of water.

We are planning a weekend primitive camping trip. What does the parking look like at the end of the gravel road before the trail? Can I leave my car there for 2 days?

Rebecca Hilbert | Feb 10, 2020
Bobby Bohemier | Feb 11, 2020

Yeah, you can park there for two days. Make sure you have 4wd unless you're confident in your tires. Great for dispersal camping.

What's the best way to get there from 76? Are there signs? ...is it on the way to Chau Ram?

Miguel Torres | Feb 10, 2020
Matthew Marshall | Feb 11, 2020

Heads up driving there I'd park where the gravel road ends if you do not have a 4 wheel drive vehicle very bad driving conditions and the place where the vehicle barrier is a very steep and rough entrance road not safe for low riding or 2 wheel drive vehicle

Its a good hike, absolutely take water and where good shoes of course. Even if you have four wheel drive, you cannot drive very far. You must walk. If you have any health conditions keep that in mind.
