Lower Falls to Cliff Trail - Self-Guided Hike

Distance: 1 mile roundtrip or 1.5 miles roundtrip

Hike to Cunningham Falls to start the new year with some exercise! From 12/30/24-1/5/25, use posted signage at the Falls Trailhead to self guide yourself on the Lower Falls Trail to see the falls and then back on the Cliff Trail. The option is there to return on the same trail you hiked there on to make it 1 mile instead. The Lower Falls trail is gravel with one larger downhill. The Cliff trail is more strenuous and includes navigating around large boulders and walking on rocks that could be slippery. Use the sign in the binder at the trailhead to tell us where you're from, how many are in your party and get a stic​ker.

Additional Details:
Lower Falls trail is accessible with a stroller that has larger wheels. The Cliff Trail is not suitable for strollers. ​Leashed pets welcome. Park entrance fees are cash/check only $3/MD vehicle, $5/out of state vehicle at honor box at the park's contact booth
