Went for canyoneering down the waterfalls. The falls we a little dry, but it was an amazing experience.
Great trail, grand views all the way to the top
Easy to access. Great to find it on Google maps.
Adventurous short hike. Best hiking time is 4pm- dusk in summer, or early morning. I wouldn't say the hike was easy. Requires good legs, some climbing on rocks, and definitely balancing acts!
Bring insect repellent and wear long sleeves and long pants. The trail is very narrow and you'll probably get kissed by branches or sharp succulent leafs.
First half is dirt roads (going up) and then a path of rocky river bed (going down).
Keep to your left on the first intersection! (if not, you'll be heading down)
The trail is very green and pretty, as you'll be able to see succulents, some unidentified trees, wild flowers, etc.
