Little River Falls parking-lot boardwalk

NPS describes a few minutes to the waterfall; the separately listed 3/4-mile trail goes to Little Falls, not this waterfall.

Boardwalk splits into a route avoiding steps and a shorter route using rock steps. Stay behind barriers and at least 50 feet from the waterfall edge.

Where to start

NPS identifies the 100-car Little River Falls parking lot beside the Highway 35 bridge, with spaces for larger vehicles and restrooms.

Timing & water

Rainfall controls flow; winter and early spring generally have more water than summer and early fall.
