Had an amazing time! The Falls trail is tough…. Need to wear proper hiking footwear and trekking poles are also really handy. I was thankful for the hiking boots I wore as they seemed to really grip the rocks. There is a lot of climbing, both down and up again. I tracked 4.41 miles and 1500’ climb down and 2200’ climb back up (all natural rock steps) from the Lake Rose Trailhead. It’s a rigorous hike, so bring lots of water and snacks. I wore a hydration backpack so water was always available when I needed it. It took us 4 hours with rests and extra time for photos at each waterfall. When I go back, I’m going to allocate the whole day so we can really take our time.
