Trail Reviews
The weather looks really good in the pictures. It was 5 degrees but an extremely icy wind. But as we walked it got warm enough. Have a nice weekend
Great hiking area in the national park, the lower path to the waterfalls offers a better view of them, the upper one has a better view of the distance and the surrounding mountains. Great views of the valley and lake from Chimney Rock. In total we spent a good 4.5 hours in the park.
