The moderately trafficked Campbell Falls Trail is a simple 1.4-mile hiking trail that can be accessed from the main park entrance on Tobey Hill Road. The park is accessible any time of the year.

Winter weather doesn't take away from the beautiful scenery. In fact, the site of the snow and frozen waterfalls only adds to the wondrously gorgeous landscape. Be cautioned that the winter terrain is slippery and trekking poles and micro spikes are highly recommended during this time of year.

When free flowing, Campbell Falls cascades down 50 feet through a gorge that ends in a swimming hole. When the winter snow melts in the springtime or after a summer rain, the falls are especially thunderous and fast flowing.
