Lower Drysdale Falls Trail
Highlight (Segment) • Trail
It's a short walk that follows Bailey's Brook upstream to the falls. The route is mostly flat and shaded by tall trees, though it does require crossing the riverbed directly — expect wet feet and slippery footing on the stones, especially in fall or after rain.

Bailey's Brook
Highlight • River
The flow is noticeably stronger in the spring, fed by snowmelt, making it the best time to see Drysdale Falls at its most dramatic. By late summer, the brook often runs lower and calmer.

726 m
Drysdale Falls
Highlight • Waterfall
A 40-foot waterfall drops at a near-vertical angle into a plunge pool that's deep enough for swimming in warmer months, though water levels and clarity vary seasonally, with the strongest flow in the spring and calmer, clearer conditions by mid-to-late summer.
