Hidden Falls Adventure Park: Dino Falls

Dino Falls is a short trail connecting Park Road 2 and Baby Back while passing through Hickory Creek. The waterfall is a popular picture point with vehicles staged as close to the edge as possible. The large parking area atop the falls is great for hanging out and relaxing. Vehicles are not allowed at the base of the falls, but the trail loops around the west side and drops down into the creek bottom. The transition from the top to the bottom of the falls is a dirt v-notch that varies in depth depending on recent rainfall. The creek bottom is bumpy, filled with rocks of different sizes, from golf balls to beachballs, and often has standing water.

In dry conditions, this trail is suitable for any high clearance vehicle. In wet conditions, 4WD is necessary.
