Note: Due to the threat of debris flows caused by the Carr Fire, for the safety of visitors and park staff, the only waterfall trails currently open include the accessible Crystal Creek Falls Trail as well as the James K. Carr Trail to Whiskeytown Falls. 'Don't go chasing waterfalls,' notes the line of a popular song by TLC. Yet here at Whiskeytown NRA, we encourage you to chase waterfalls - go visit them! Whiskeytown has four major waterfalls that you can visit. While in springtime you can observe the waterfalls at peak flow due to creeks gushing from melting snow, a waterfall hike in summertime offers cool respite from the scorching sun. Visit the waterfalls in each season and note what differences and similarities you find.
