Yakso Falls Hike Description
Taking you to a stunning waterfall that is situated along the Little River, the Yakso Falls Hike is the perfect way to get the family outdoors for a quick excursion in nature.
Setting out from the trailhead at the Lake in the Woods Campground, you will head to the northeast across FS-27. Once you are on the opposite side, you will gradually climb uphill through the forest, before making a slight descent to Yakso Falls.
Take some time to appreciate the natural beauty of this plunging 70ft waterfall and the surrounding landscape, before heading back along the same trail to return to your vehicle. If you are after another hike in the area, then be sure to check out our guide for the Hemlock Falls Trail.
