Nope. You have to hike along the river quite a bit, then take a trail to the falls, but you are at the base, not under or behind. It can also be dangerous trying to get to the falls any other way. Many people have died doing so.

You can hike to the top. Only takes about 15 minutes from the parking lot. It's an access road marked by a big danger sign. Don't take your dog with you if you go that way.

No! The falls consists of mostly cascades with a small drop near the bottom. It's possible to reach the top of the falls and I have seen people there but it's not recommended. Approximately 20 people have died when they slipped! It's a 400 ft drop and lots of rocks to land on.

Not really , First u have to hike down to the river There are some small waterfalls down there but if u are expecting to see the big waterfall that u see on top u have to hike further up once you've reached the bottom. if that make sense , but overall it is beautiful we love it. U can get in the water but expect it to be cold even in the summer. Hope this helps 😊
