Fish Creek Falls TH: Trail #1102
Lower Fish Creek Falls Trail Closed
The Hahns Peak/Bears Ears Ranger District has temporarily closed the lower Fish Creek Falls Trail from the parking lot to the bridge due to a small avalanche. Potential for more avalanche activity poses a risk to public safety. Please respect all posted closures.
Fish Creek Falls Trailhead #1102 provides a great view of the waterfalls from a wheelchair accessible overlook trail and a dirt trail leading to the base of the falls. A historical bridge, which crosses Fish Creek, continues the trail 5 miles to Long Lake and connects to Trail #1101 and Trail #1032. Vault toilet are provided. Area open year round, providing snow shoeing and ice climbing in the winter months.
