Hike Description:

Follow the trail from the visitor center down the steps towards Natural Bridge. The waterfall is right along the steps. There is a landing about half-way down and a picnic area near the base. It's not really impressive and not worth a special trip but a pleasant scene on the way to see the Natural Bridge.
