About this place
Added by Eric Bennett
Battlecreek Falls is a great place to get away after a long day of work—or if you're looking for a great hike but are short on time. It's a great way to get the dog or your family out to enjoy some nature.
The falls are about a 15-25 minute walk from the parking lot. The waterfall is enormous and you'll have an amazing view of the sunset.

Short hike to a really pretty waterfall
It's a short hike, and the waterfall is really pretty, and covered in ice in the winter

Quick Hike for a Great Reward
It's a short hike but the waterfall is lovely! It's nice to cool off in on a hot summer day too.

Waterfall Rappel
This is my favorite place to rig a rope up at the top and rappel over the falls. Cold water!

Great, easy adventure!
Its a great, short hike to an amazing waterfall. There are also bolts at the top of the falls for rappelling.
