Hike Description:
From the parking area, pick up the red-blazed Little Bradley Falls Trail that heads up above the creek. Don't take the obvious path that heads towards the creek. At 0.3 miles, the trail crosses a tributary that can usually be done without getting your feet wet. Don't take the path that heads up the tributary, just cross and continue following Cove Creek upstream. At about 0.5 miles, the trail crosses Cove Creek, which will usually require wading. After this, the trail is pretty easy, leading just another half-mile to the waterfall.
You can scramble around on the rocks to view from different angles, but use caution climbing the rocks around the falls.
Here's a video of the falls:
