Waterfall Hero: Laurel Falls (Worthington)

Laurel Falls is a 30-foot sliding waterfall in two sections on Sunfish Creek in Worthington State Forest. A 15-foot falls sits just downstream. From the Douglas Trailhead parking area, cross Old Mine Road. The Douglas Trail bears right away from the creek; instead take the obvious path upstream along the creek. It reaches Lower Laurel Falls almost at once, then Laurel Falls a couple hundred feet further. This listing’s position is closest to the lower 15-foot falls; the same short path reaches both.
