Roberts Creek Waterfall Trail Description
While it is a short hiking route, the Roberts Creek Waterfall Loop can be a bit confusing to navigate due to the dense network of trails that it is a part of. Make sure to keep an eye on your map or GPS in order to stay on the correct path. The hike sets out from the side of Day Road and enters into the forest along a path to the south. From here, you will navigate through an amazingly atmospheric stretch of West Coast temperate rainforest that is filled with moss-covered trees, plentiful amounts of ferns, wild mushrooms, and the charming waters of Roberts Creek. Eventually, you will arrive at the cascading waterfall, which you can either admire from afar or descend to the pool below for a quick dip in the cool water. After taking in the beauty of the falls, continue along the loop to return to the trailhead.
