Tips

Hiking

You'll have to stray a few hundred feet off the main path on a spur trail to get to the main waterfall viewing area. Elk Falls is the most well-known and popular waterfall in the area, but Jones Falls offers some unique features (along with some solitude) that its neighbor Elk Falls doesn't. This 100-foot waterfall has two sections: the upper section is more of a sheer drop, while the bottom section is smooth rock face.
