Crystal Creek Falls

Reviewed By JoyNCH - Clovis, United States

This trail was a little hard for me to find at first because I wasn’t using GPS, but was easy to get to once I figured out the road to turn on from Hwy 299 - Crystal Creek Road ???? very short, easy hike to the falls, which were bigger and prettier than I thought. There is a nice picnic area with trash cans and benches right next to the falls, and you can also easily walk down to the fall base just off the trail head. It is pretty steep though. My 6-yr old daughter and I got down there, but there was a family with a dog that was pretty aggressive, so we ended up turning back. There’s really only room for one family at the base.
