a year agoTook the orange trail to High Falls. The trail is simple and easy to follow, but not stroller or mobility restricted friendly for people with limitations on climbing up and down large rocks and narrow pathways. It was a quick 2.23 miles to the falls and back from the Simmons middle school trail head. There are several other trails to take in the area if you want to make a day of it, but the rain picked up pretty heavy, so we cut the rest of our day short.
