Cherry Creek Falls — Saturday, Apr. 26, 2025

Absolutely loved this trail! Started at 9 am and finished sometime after 11 am - we were stopping to enjoy the sights along the way and were at the falls for about 20 minutes. The sights switch up as you go, and you can catch glimpses of the ridge across the way through occasional breaks in the trees. There are spots where trees have fallen across the trail, but most have been sawed to make way. There are some spots where you may have to climb/step over a fallen tree, but a fair number of those have trails worn down for hikers to walk around. One of the coolest spots is where you hike along a giant fallen tree - it really puts into perspective just how big some of them are. If you don’t want to get your feet wet, then you’ll need to be able to balance on rocks and logs while crossing the last creek before reaching the waterfall. When you get to the falls, don’t forget to view them from above, too!! There’s a small clearing and at that time in the mid morning, the sun was shining perfectly for a short rest in the sunlight.
