Six beautiful waterfalls on this trail. It starts off steep, then it's very easy, but the end at Fall Creek Falls is a little dangerous. Around the half mile marker the trail has a fork. Right will lead you to Fall Creek Falls and the other two falls. To the left, the path will lead you to Pristine Falls. Another excellent waterfall you will not want to miss. Only a tenth of a mile up the trail. There are some small creek crossings on both trails. Very limited parking on the side of the road.

Jul 4, 2025 · Google ReviewThis trail I absolutely loved and there are 6 waterfalls on the one way 2.86 mile hike. Upon approaching each fall the trail is totally a scramble down to each. I was holding onto trees and roots to make my way down. Two of the falls you need to bush whack or your not going to be able to get right in front of it. Bring a machete to view all. There were portions that were slanted and close to the edge. My ankles and knees definitely got a workout. Then a good portion of the trail was flat and took you through the Sumter Forest. I recommend long pants and long sleeve shirt; many thorny vines growing across the path. You will have to climb over many downed trees, I loved all of this. This was one of my favorite hikes! Don't recommend for children or if your ankles/knees week. I have seen 110 falls at this time so I do have experience.

Apr 6, 2023 · Google ReviewTricky decent to this falls not far off the roadway. Very small area to park easy to miss. Not recommended for children or the elderly. This is more a waterfallers waterfall. Be careful and have fun.
