This trail provides breathtaking views of Big Creek Falls as it plunges 110 feet into a mist-shrouded pool. The loop trail continues, offering interpretive displays which help you explore the old-growth Douglas fir forest. However, you may choose to continue downslope along the canyon rim above Big Creek Gorge and a second waterfall. The trail ends on a rock promontory overlooking the Lewis River Valley.
