- Access status
- Source-reviewed route and parking
- The walk
- A few yards from the parking area (2013 visit); the west-side horse trail route is about 2 miles round trip but also covers Fuzzybutt Falls
- Ground & access
- Short, easy walk from the lot. Exploring upstream or downstream is off trail and may need water shoes or boots. Stay clear of the creek at high water.
From Highway 7 at Pelsor, go east on Highway 16 for 10 miles, then turn left onto Forest Road 1205, signed only for Falling Water Horse Camp. Follow it 5.3 miles, cross the bridge over Falling Water Creek, and park at the small lot with a sign board about a half mile beyond the bridge. The falls are a few yards down the hill. Six small drops spill across a ledge; at high water they merge into one. Other falls nearby need a creek crossing or a trailless walk.
