Scenic 2.5-mile loop trail to Crabtree Falls is moderate to strenuous with a steep incline and rocky terrain. Allow 1.5 to 2.5 hours for the entire hike.
From the trailhead in the parking lot behind the campground entrance, the trail descends .9 mile to the falls.
The wet rocks are VERY slippery.
After viewing the falls, you can return either by retracing your steps, or by continuing on a longer but more gradual ascent back to the parking lot. The longer route begins as a moderately steep switchback that provides another beautiful view of the falls.
