Take Flood-Hope Rd. 4 km to the overpass. Cross the overpass. Turn at the second left. Continue for 100 metres to locate the trailhead.

DownsideMade the drive out to hope to hike this one but I couldn't find the trail. I found the trail head I beleive but there didn't seem to be any real path to follow. The creek seemed to be non-existent...Was totally dry. Couldn't see or hear any water.
CommentDoes anyone have better directions than posted here on how to find the trail? Is there still a waterfall at the end in the summer?

CommentIt appears as though the new paintball field in the area has removed the access bridge for the trail, effectively ruining this hike. Argh.
You can park closer to the highway and go in a different location, following the creek.

UpsideShort, easy hike that has a beautiful waterfall. It has a dry, hard to spot, riverbed that you could climb up to get a better view.
DownsideIt's so short that it could get boring, on like your second or third time.
CommentI really liked it and it was an easy hike for my dad, whosbeen smoking for a long time.
