The trail was closed after heavy rain earlier this year. The waterfall itself is only about a 15 min. hike from where you park on the side of the road. There are some boulders and steep slopes, but overall a very easy hike and a short treck from the "parking lot".

There is no gated entry or anything, not even a sign of the place. Just a wilderness hike without any fences. Keep in mind that some paths are narrow, so some social distancing would be nice and polite.

@Victoria and others asking about how long it takes…it’s relatively close to Ortega Hwy. probably only 10 minutes for a hike to the waterfall, on a slight incline going down and coming back up to get back to the road. Couldn’t tell you exact distance but you can gauge that pretty well from Google Maps.

How long is the hike from the parking area to the waterfall? Is this hike safe for kids 10/11 yrs old?

Don't waste your time seeing this dirty place, papers, cans, tissues, etc... tagged rocks, frankly horrible as a place.
