Hike To Eaton Canyon Falls

Altadena, California

Description

• Super Easy Hike For Beginners• Beautiful Rock Wall• A Bunch Of Different Trails• Gorgeous Waterfall

There's not a whole lot to say about this hike besides the fact that it's a beautiful one and definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. I've just started getting into traveling and exploring so it's hard to compare this trail to many others, but this hike was a great adventure to start with. You start off on the trail and within a few minutes you come across a stunning rock wall that has a backdrop of beautiful skies and trees. As you get deeper into the trail you start coming across a bunch of forks in the road, which lets you choose your own adventure.

Some trails lead to gorgeous scenic views while others lead you to a waterfall that you could stare at for hours. If you're looking for a relaxed hike to do on a weekend and to get some beautiful photos while doing it then you should definitely check out Eaton Canyon Falls.

The hidden forty-foot-tall Eaton Canyon Falls fills an amphitheater at the top of Eaton Canyon Trail, tumbling into a wide pool that you can rest alongside or wade in.
