| Hike Summary: | #20 in John W. Robinson's "Trails of the Angeles" 150' Elevation Gain This is a pleasant, easy stroll to a very nice waterfall. This is a good hike for kids (with Assistance) or as and a side hike to cool of from hiking Mt. Lowe. The only downside is that the falls are swarmed in the summer. With people comes noise trash graffitti etc. On Fall and winter days you may have the falls to yourself. Walk towards a locked fire road gate at the end of Chaney Trail Drive. Pass the gate and walk to Millard campground. A sign is located just beyond the camp. Go right 0.5 miles to Millard Canyon falls. Much of this hike involves boulder hopping, there are sections of trail, though it disappears often. It is a relatively short hike so it can still be classified as easy, though small children, and dogs may need some help with this one. |
