Cedar Falls - Hocking Hills State Park Hiking Area
At Cedar Falls, huge hemlocks, a waterfall that is picture-perfect and craggy, beautiful cliffs bring folks back from year to year.
Directions: From Logan, Take State Route 664 to State Route 374
Interesting things to look for: One of the more
popular trails is Cedar Falls. Visitors to the trail
have
said it is like stepping into an enchanted forest. Huge hemlocks,
well-worn paths and rugged cliffs line much of the trail. At one time, a
grist mill was located at the top of the falls where a newly constructed
bridge now stands. If you look closely at the stream from the bridge,
you can see the remnants of the old mill. Huge snapping turtles live
deep in the pool beneath the waterfall. Watch just below the cliff edge,
you may see them basking in the early morning sun.
Length: The trail is about a 1/2 mile and takes about 40 minutes to hike.
