Falls of Hills Creek - Hiking trail near Richwood, West Virginia, United States - Description

Easy to Moderate Trail.
It is short (3/4 mile, one way), and mostly boarded, but has lots of steps on the path making it a little "steeper". Downhill on way out, return trip is up the stairs. There are lots of resting spots, take your time and enjoy.

Also, The first falls is handicap accessible...a rare treat.

There are 3 waterfalls total. They get better as you go in, so I suggest the full route. 2nd and 3rd (Middle and Lower) falls both provide GREAT photo opportunities WITHOUT leaving the trail. The first (Upper) is a "save your film"...on or off the trail, there's no good angle

Open all year. Personally, I think my favorite season is winter, with the icicles around the falls. Late summer with the green is nice too.
