Roaring Run Falls is located in the Roaring Run Recreational Area. This waterfall was only about a 0.61 mile hike to the falls with a loop of 1.5 miles. I made my up on the Streamside Trail and back down on the Woodland Trail. The Streamside Trail was very scenic and crossed over a few rustic stone bridges. The trail was fairly easy.

This hike even features a natural waterslide! Too bad it was winter time!

On the way back from the Woodland Trail there is a scenic overlook as seen above. Towards the end of the trail there is an Iron Furnace just before returning to the parking lot. Roaring Run gets its name from the historical iron furnace that was built in 1832.

Length:1.5 miles round trip
