Definitely go prepared with water and snacks. It's a great spot for a picnic. Stay hydrated for the climb back up.lol. Wear comfortable clothing and good nonslip supporting shoes. I've seen some in flip flops, idk how they do it . The most strenuous areas of hiking are at the beginning with the natural rock staircase. This area includes Uneven rocks and steep step up and down areas. Could be a challenge for small children and anyone with back or knee problems. But it's not impossible for most if you wear the right shoes, maybe bring a hiking stick; and pace yourself. Just go for-warned and prepared. I highly recommend the hike if you love the outdoors and natural beauty. My husband and I take our time getting to the falls and enjoy a picnic once we arrive, and it is about a 3 to 4 hour round trip most of the time for us. Hopefully that helps keep things in perspective for you as far as timing. Also, There will be no cell service for most once you reach the falls. But That just means you get to enjoy a nice peaceful uninterrupted experience.

Accessible by sedan also is a big big plus bc my ignorant self did not take off-roading into account (and did it anyway) which I don't recommend esp if you have access to a Jeep or other all-terrain vehicle. I did this hike through the rain and it wasn't too bad but just watch out for slippery rocks. There are a bunch of slick rocks in the end where the cave is so don't be a dummy like me and try to traverse it because it's a little sketch but still super fun. You can easily dial this short hike into a workout and it'll def be harder coming back up. Bring some water and snacks to chill out at the cave, but always Leave No Trace~ Would definitely come back with my Jeep in the future. Winter time looks extra fun since the falls actually freeze over :O

I spent a few hours hiking on one of the more difficult hiking trails and it was a great experience! The trail was clean and well labeled, but the only difficult part was locating the same trail markers going down the mountain, especially since there are so many rocks and boulders throughout the entire terrain so it was very easy to miss several trail markers on the way down. I love that the state park offers a variety of trails and difficulty levels, so whether you are a beginner hiker or a more experienced hiker, you are bound to have a good time. I enjoyed the trail and the experience of doing some rock climbing, and if I'm ever in the area again I will definitely come back!

Love the free AR state park "passports" you can get as well - so many high-quality details!! 2. This was a challenging but well-marked hiking path. For context, we were told there is a "hard" side or an "extra hard" side to hike LOL. We chose the "hard" side. You do need some moderate physical fitness - a good portion of the "trail" was just spray-painted yellow marks on large rocks and boulders you have to climb. But we did it all in under 2 hours? Great views from the top, and there is a wonderful playground in the middle of the parking lot too! What a unique and fun experience. Honorable mention: we saw a raccoon in a Christmas sweater.

He was a great help in assisting us both on land and on the water especially with some of the older people in our group. We will be back.

The partners, John and Matt, were so friendly and able to recommend floating/excursion ideas for my day. Their shuttle service was perfect and they arrived when they said they would. The equipment was top notch and most importantly affordable. Seeing the sheer amount of white water rapids, large boulders, and deep pools filled with fish definitely are going to lure me back here. If only I had brought my fishing pole with me... The campsites were clean and dispersed which made me able to connect with the woods teeming with bird songs and wildlife. I can't wait to return to float, camp, and to catch lots of smallmouth! Thank you again for the wonderful time! You truly helped me have a legendary day!

There's 53 acres to explore and I have been told, an excellent 4th of July fireworks display held by the water.

Lake Catherine-- We absolutely love this lake!…read more Although, I felt like things were not labeled as they should have been during the hike of "Falls Creek Falls". There were marks on trees during the hike that were red, white and yellow, but I had no idea what those meant. Maybe this part of town is less touristy and more locals, because people had set up hammocks, and all of their things that they needed for the night/day around the waterfall after the hike. I spoke to a sweet man and woman on a golf cart who seemed to work there, as they were going around and changing papers for the reservations for there were trailers in the parking lot, and they advised us on where to go and park. They did advise us that if you go on the trails, if you go towards the left, the hike is shorter and it's about a 1/2 a mile, and if you go towards the right, it's about a mile and a 1/2 Which is a great tip because, of course, we wanted to take the shorter route. We had a toddler and an elderly person with us, and so we did not want to do a strenuous hike. This hike was just enough for us to feel better adventurous, and like we accomplished something when we got to the falls. The falls were beautiful, and the water looked gorgeous. Although, I did see later on another app, that a lot of times sewer water gets into the falls. Unfortunately, we had decided to take a dip even though we didn't have swim suits just because it looks so refreshing but it's just something to keep in mind. Overall, we would definitely come here again! It looks like a great place to bring lunch and hang out and eat after a great hike!
