Spring Falls at Tiadaghton State Forest near Cammal, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.2-mile out-and-back walk that leads up a 50-foot tall, 200-foot long mountain spring waterfall.
This is not really a hike, but rather a walk that leads up alongside a mountain spring that gushes out of the mountain. The spring, during the Winter or early Spring flows so heavily that it creates a multitude of cascading waterfalls, some 1-foot tall, others 3-feet tall that spill down the mountain. Many of these small waterfalls spill over large boulders or massive tree roots that jut out into the creek and while there isn't a large plunging waterfall here, this long cascade of smaller waterfalls makes for an interesting sight, especially due to the fact that all of this water is coming from underground within the mountain itself, hence Spring Falls. This mountain spring feeds Truman Run downstream.
Parking
Hikers will find a road turnout that bends down toward the waterfall and back to the road. Otherwise, you can park right off of the road in a small turnout and use this path as a trail instead.
MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.
It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.
Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉
