Road 299 Falls

From the small roadside clearing on CR 299, use the informal path at the back-right of the clearing. Rick Henry describes following the bluff rim briefly to the right, then descending to the falls. Return the same way; this is not a marked AGFC nature trail.

Firsthand sources describe only a few yards from parking and a short bluff descent. No measured one-way or return distance is supplied.

Informal dirt path and bluff descent; watch footing near the edge.
