2 mile walk (i learned that's before it goes up hill at the end. I haven't been up that far yet)
It is a nice easy walk. Watch for horse droppings.
I like to arrive early, before 8am, for parking purposes. It can get packed, especially on weekends. No parking fee required.
There are a couple Portapotties in the beginning but no chance to use a bathroom once you get out on the trail.
Dogs are welcome - pick up what they drop! Bring your own bags for that.

Nice trail but people leave their trash in some spots which takes away from the enjoyment of nature.

I love this place. The scenery is beautiful and the water is always amazing. I would've given 5 stars, but people suck and can't clean up after themselves. Other than the bits of garbage everywhere, it's a nice spot to go to.

It's beautiful up there if you love the outdoors you will love it here. Sorry I don't have more pictures to show my phone died right after these.

The hike I went on with Meetup was outstanding. The further we went the more adventurous it became. I didn't slip and fall in one of the waterfalls. Great outdoor experience.

This is a hidden gem. You learn a little history on the tour and you see some really interesting structures inside the cave. Overall I thought it was worth it just for the science and the geological rarity of the place.

Calcutta falls is a nice easy beginner hike that is paved for most of it and packed dirt for the rest. It isn't wheelchair accessible but is very easy to walk on. The falls goes for most of the year but is definitely best after a recent rainfall. Signage is clear so it's impossible to get lost. Easy to get too although parking is a bit difficult.
