Trillium Gap Trail to Grotto Falls is a moderate trail off the
Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail. It is 2.6 miles round trip though a
old-growth hemlock dominated forest. Grotto Falls is distinctive as the
only waterfall in the park one can walk behind, the 25 foot high
waterfall is a cool, moist environment that is ideal for salamanders and
summer hikers. The picturesque nature of the falls along with the unique ability to
walk behind the falls makes this a very rewarding hike.
