Hiking

The Brink of the Lower Falls Trail offers a close-up experience with the Lower Falls, allowing hikers to experience water plunging between 5,000 and 60,000 gallons per second over a 308-foot drop. You can enjoy distant views of the falls from overlooks near the parking lot or descend the steep 0.4-mile Brink of the Lower Falls Trail, which drops 600 feet to reach the falls. This trail, located in the Canyon Village Area, is open during summer and fall but closed in winter. No reservations or activity fees are required, and pets are not allowed.
