Awe man me and that lady in the photos absolutely loved that place.. still do it's just we're divorced now and that's where I proposed to her and now it's kind of like bad vibes from there so I don't go anymore.. in time!! It's such a beautiful place.. very busy around Christmas so be prepared but totally worth it if you enjoy mother nature at her peak along with help from lights and electronics! Such a wonderful experience!!

Great place for anyone! Very accessible for everyone as well! Greta place to camp, do some hiking! Even get out your backpack and stay out for a few days! The accessibility to the falls is as good as you will get anywhere! My sister was married in the chapel next to it as well, so it’s a very functional but still relatively untouched area! The lower falls is amazing, it’s actually been renovated and stairs added down the path and is very accessible even for those who have physical issues! A little navigating through and over boulders but ultimately worth the effort!

When we were here was following a long drought and the falls were flowing but not as spectacular as in the past. It is still a great site and great park. People were able to actually swim in the water. Full and roaring or barely flowing, the fall is worth seeing and the story of Noccalula is worth hearing.

Absolutely stunning after spring rains. It's rare to find accessible 90ft waterfalls without having to drive and hike considerable distances. This is a very well-maintained natural resource complete with a pioneer village and activities for the family. On the park side, you pay a small fee to get to the falls on a light to light-moderate trail depending how far behind the falls you go. It becomes moderate-difficult, even treacherous after rain, to continue out the other side, but it is possible and very rewarding. You can walk the entire circuit around the gorge using a suspension bridge on the opposite end from the falls. There are signs all over the place preventing you from getting turned around. When there aren't signs there are orange paint markers and white reflective tags on trees. You can also enter the gorge from the opposite side of the creek from the park without paying a fee. You can then take the suspension bridge to the other side to get to the falls more easily. There are plenty of opportunities to shoot video and photography of rapids, cliffs, flora, and fauna. It's an experience you shouldn't pass up if you have an hour or two.

Beautiful waterfall by the parking lot. Very nice trail (approx 1.1 miles) that takes you across a suspension bridge.

Something for everyone at this lovely park. Plenty of picnic places and free views of the falls.
At a small cost entry to the park is worth the fee. Nice walk around, the train isn’t running but looks like it would be good fun for kids.
The Gorge Trail to the foot of the falls is a bit steep in parts but we’ll worth the effort.

Have always loved this park. Great place to walk, explore, and be around and in nature. Great old buildings on display. They have upgraded the train within the past 2 years, and is now electric. Plenty of hiking trails on site as well.
