ARE DOGS ALLOWED ON THE WALK AS LONG AS THEY ARE LEASHED?

Larry McNulty | Sep 28, 2021

I called the park... dogs are welcome (if leashed), on the North Rim or South Rim trail but NOT ALLOWED on the Gorge Trail. We think that our group will split in half, some beginning on the Gorge Trail and those with the dogs, beginning on the North trail. We can then exchange the animals once we get to Mile point Bridge and switch trails with the dogs walking “back” the same North Rim trail. We only cut off 1/2 mile to the end (and Jacob’s Ladder), which lead to a different parking lot which would require a shuttle anyway.

They have tent and RV camping. As of july 2020 they were converting more sites with RV electric hookups. The campground has access to the center and far end of the gorge trail.

How far of a walk is it from the parking area to the falls?

Sally Healy Frank | Sep 28, 2020
Alex Kamenshikov | Sep 28, 2020

Main parking area is right at the base of the trail that goes along 19 waterfall cascade. Base is handicap friendly and flat after that it's stairs and trail running along the waterfall cascade series .

we have a bus trip what will we see

Marilyn Liles | Sep 29, 2019
Ray Baldwin | Sep 29, 2019

Well if you bus up and walk down it is amazing. If you only bus up and bus down, not a lot to see from a bus.
