Racehorse Falls Trail Description

Racehorse Falls is a very pretty waterfall on Racehorse Creek that can be reached on a fast, easy hike. This trail is suitable for all ages and skill levels and doesn’t tend to get very busy. It’s a nice break from driving, but it may feel too short to plan a whole adventure around. We recommend keeping it in mind to check out should you be driving through the area.

The hike begins from N Fork Road. You’ll head south through a level stretch of forest. The viewpoint is easy to find, and you can use the connecting trail at the end of the road access route to see the falls from a few different angles.

Once you’re done admiring the waterfall, head back to the road on the same trail.
