Hike to Helen Hunt Falls & Silver Cascades
0.65 Miles Total - 300 ft gain - Out-and-Back Trail
Originally added by Jake Sells
For a quick adventure that offers awesome views of Cheyenne Canyon, this is a great hike to pair with another adventure in the area!
Park at the log-cabin visitor's center on North Cheyenne Canyon Rd just before it turns into Gold Camp Rd. I definitely recommend arriving early, as the parking lot fills up quickly. Helen Hunt Falls is in sight of the parking area, and another 1/3 mile past that you'll run into Silver Cascades.
The trail can get quite busy, so I'd recommend visiting on a weekday if possible.
Pair this adventure with one of the many others right off North Cheyenne Canyon Rd!
