Tranquil woods, flowing river, and tumbling waterfalls make for a beautiful and head-clearing hike. 

Park in the lot on Bunker Hill Road and then continue a short ways to the trailhead (see map). There are no bridges for crossing the water so be prepared to pick your way across.

Hike the Gunpowder Falls North and South Loop Trail

Excellent Hike

My dog and I love the trails in Gunpowder. It’s a bit of a drive, but worth it.
