Route Description for Alder Creek Falls Hike
Hiking this trail makes for an unforgettable experience. Explore the great outdoors and reward yourself with a refreshing dip in a natural swimming hole. The exposed fire road to the falls boasts unbearably hot conditions in the summer months, so be sure to pack plenty of water. Additionally, it is important to be mindful of snakes and lizards as you trek. Don’t forget to bring a towel to dry off after your swim! Note entrance to the park costs $35USD per vehicle or $20USD per person for pedestrians or cyclists.

Enjoy the scenery of the encompassing mountainscape, and you will ultimately reach a fork in the road—keep right here.
This primitive path will guide you across smoothed outcrops to Adler Creek Falls.
