Short easy hike to nice waterfall. Popular hike so expect crowds. We saw several beautiful elk on the drive to the trail.

Short hike, you can get a bit winded on the uphill section but path is smooth, easy. Pretty falls, interesting rocks.

Very cool spot. Great scenic spot. And quite the story behind it that occurred to form this spectacular site. Been there.many times and always enjoy it. Great for a quick hike and taking photos. Not too far into the park. I love enjoying the wonderful waterfall and the scenic bridge. Bathrooms at this location aswell.

Gorgeous! On Old Fall River Road. Short walk and not too many people. Easy access for kids and wheel chair - with someone pushing. Trail/walkway is a crushed stone path. So glad OlFall River was open and we took the drive!

This short trail has been completely rebuilt since the flood a decade or so back, though with perhaps a little less shade. It offers great views of the alluvial fan and Horseshoe Falls, especially from the bridge over Roaring River. The trail is paved and we had little trouble pushing our daughter's stroller up this trail. Going offtrail it is an easy hike up to the base of the falls, but it isn't suitable for strollers. Near the falls the temperature drops 5-10 degrees from the evaporative cooling effects.


Section of mountain national park at over 8,500 feet in a u-shaped valley with a trailhead.



A favorite viewing point at a hairpin turn on Trail Ridge Road, with sweeping views of Mummy Range.

High-altitude pullout at a curve in Trail Ridge Road, with views of forested valley & snowy peaks.
