Twin Falls Natural Area

Very beautiful. The waterfall is amazing! This was my first time here. The parking costs $10 so I paid for it. Definitely worth the fee. However when I left I saw that you can park further down and I don't think you have to pay for the parking, so check it out!

We went there for a family hike on a Saturday.
The place was packed to overflowing.
When we finally got to the trail head the kids all had to go to the bathroom (of course). The bathroom was in terrible shape. Like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time.
On the trail, the first thing you come to is access to the river to play in.
Then as you start the climb there is a beautiful forest with wonderful mature trees.
At the top is a bridge that crosses the river with a wonderful view of the falls.

Very good hike to a beautiful falls. There’s a bridge crossing on the top of the falls. It’s gorgeous, a very underrated falls in PNW. But it’s a good hike. 3.5 miles return trip, easy. Takes about 1.5-2 hrs total. Parking is a problem, it gets extremely crowded over the weekends especially in summers. Early morning is the best time to go.

The trail was fine. They did some safety things on it, and that was great to see.

This was a nice trail. Definitely a workout doing this trail with the inclined hills and narrow paths. Kid and dog friendly. Just very small and limited parking spaces. Have to be there early to find a good parking spot. Would definitely recommend though.

Beautiful 2.6 mile hike round trip. Multiple views of falls along the way. Lots to see along the trail: creeks, boulders, river, bridges. Lower and Upper falls view points are near each other at top of trail. Hiked in May, 60 degrees and drizzling rain. Trail was muddy. Arrive early to get parking spot in small lot at trailhead. Discover Pass required.

Had a great time checking out this area last winter. Only ran into a few other people. Great views and weather. I would love to come back here and do a longer hike connecting to more trails.

Very nice trail, relatively short at less than 3 miles round-trip. There is a decent sized parking lot that fills up quickly on the weekend, just have to turn around and park on the side. There are a few bathrooms by the parking lot, nothing fancy; use at your own risk, I don't think they're regularly maintained. Trail requires a Discover Pass or you can pay $10 there. Several places off the trail where you can go down to the river, easily find a place to sit and relax and have a picnic. There are two spots to see the waterfalls: the bridge has a view of the smaller falls, while there's a small platform to view the larger. Bridge was fine, not crowded, people move along. Platform gets clogged and people tend to just hang out there talking about life, a tad frustrating (maybe hopefully just a problem on the weekend). Good trail for dogs and kids!

I loooved this hike. It was scenic the entire way.

Really great little adventure area! Trail was well maintained. Spots to rest with little benches after areas of steep incline. Even went for a little swim after the hike on our way down.

Great view of the two water falls. Great place to pause before you continue hiking.

Photographers, you can get a few good shots here, but wait until you get to the observation point or the bridge. There are much better places for photos.

Hikers this is a great part of the trail. Especially as you climb a big hill and start going down. When you're heading back, this part is the quickest to get back.

Lyove going here, it's always a good hike and it's always kept up well...besides the upside down bench.

Don't recommend it if you have children under 5-6, it's got a lot of steep hills and cliffs. Kids typically don't do well with these parts.

Seen a few people with dogs here, very respectful about keeping them on the leash.

Do note that the park closes at dark.

Great hike to the falls! Takes about an hour to hour and a half depending on how far you go. Gets kinda muddy so bring your hiking shoes!

This is gem! Scenery is magnificent. The hike to the falls is moderate with some inclines and steps alternating with relatively flat ground. So you get to catch your breath as you go up.

I went to hike the falls both this week on wednesday and friday, friday was busier in the parking lot was almost full but there is plenty of parking if you don't mind walking. There is a bathroom On the trailhead and It's really an easy hike as long as you don't mind a little bit of elevation.

Absolutely beautiful and worth the hike. Great trail for families- a little steep in some areas and does go up hill quite a bit with some narrow sections- just some things to keep in mind. Lots of split offs to the water- I definitely recommend enjoying a few moments by the water. Great hike for dogs too!

There was a decent amount of people, but everyone was really courteous maintaining distance, stepping aside as needed, and masking up as they go by.

Really small parking lot, ended up parking down the street a bit. Bathrooms are very basic- toilet and hand sanitizer (limited light). If you don't have a discover pass there's two pay stations one electric and one paper (cash and such).

This trail is a great to bring family if your grandparents (that are getting older) are up for a moderate challenge and a rewarding end. The trail provides a great short summary of Washington trail experience. Lush, verdant greenery and crystal clear snow melt rivers/waterfalls. There are plenty of beautiful/serene spots to take good photos with your iPhone in portrait mode. Traffic on the trail is mild in that you will sometimes be able to privately talk amongst your own group and good small talk here with others while crossing them. Some days it could be super busy even on a rainy day. You have to pay to park or get an annual Washington discovery pass.

Twin falls is a low effort high reward hike, being only a couple miles yet getting to see a breathtaking view of Twin Falls, and the surrounding area! Would strongly suggest going past the main viewpoint and checking out the other higher falls!

I loved it. It was a 1.5 miles trail very beautiful. I enjoyed everything. The Waterfall at the end was spectacular. There are some paths that you can follow and they will take it to the river. So, so beautiful. People were respecting social distancing, but many were not using masks. I enjoyed every minute of this trail, the nature, the sun and being outside home.

Very enjoyable short and easy walk.

Really beautiful area and really fun hike. Lots of fairly steep areas, so higher end of the moderate difficulty level.
