This is the waterfall that is within hiking distance of our Walden Creek Cabin Airbnb! The hike to the waterfalls is a moderate-level hike; it is mostly uphill on the way there, so the good news is that it's mostly downhill on the way back! To get to Walden Creek Falls, walk to the end of the driveway and turn right. After about a 10 minute walk you will see a forestry road on the right, (if you watch as you are driving in, you will see it on the left just about .2 miles from the cabin). Follow this road/trail for about 35-40 min. You may hear the waterfall. You will cross over a sort of bridge, that's really a culvert, with a stream running underneath the path. Then turn left up the trail, (and follow the sound), and you will come to them soon!
