Canyoneer, Hike, Rock Climb, and Swim

A surprising waterfall and lush riparian community filled with waterbirch and red osier dogwood trees. Visitors can hike the easy ¼ mile Jump Creek Falls Trail - you may get your feel wet! - walk high and dry to the Falls Overlook on a recently improved trail, or picnic near the rock crevices and meandering stream. Swimmers will find a refreshing dip at the base of the falls.
