About this place

Added by Outbound

Hike through meadows and forest in Rocky Mountain National Park. A short scramble towards the end takes you to the falls.

This 20-ft waterfall is accessible via Cow Creek Trail, which starts out through a meadow where elk are sometimes seen. The trail then heads into the forest, followed by a short scramble before the falls. Wildflowers add extra appeal to this scenic trail in the spring and summer.
