Super easy and accessible, I was here in July so the weather was fantastic and the trail was easy to navigate. It's a short walk and it is very well marked, a quarter mile walk that I would call "easy" but it is absolutely not handicapped accessible. The falls are stunning. They cascade 17 meters (55 feet) in a low roar and if you are patient, you might manage to be here completely alone. Otherwise, there are people who don't understand how to behave in nature. Do a good deed today. If you have a trash bag in your car, bring it with you and I'll bet you can find a couple of pieces to pack out and dispose of properly.

An easy hike to Sherman Falls on a glorious summer day is a great way to spend some time in nature. The fall is a pretty spot but can be slightly difficult to find. It can also get crowded during summer. Hiking shoes are recommended as some parts of the trail can be slippery.

Fall was amazing. There are no restrooms and we paid $11 for parking. The fall is two minute walk from the parking lot.
