Dickerson Creek Falls — Attraction in Erlands Point-Kitsap Lake

I've taken my dog for a few hikes around the waterfall. It's a very short hike without too many inclines. There are a couple of steeper ones at the beginning (for anyone with a bad knee). The path is really beautiful, but you also have the option of getting on the road if you're not feeling the terrain. The last time I hiked here my dog got crazy by the end of the hike--she really wanted to get to the car as fast as possible. Turns out a bear had left some paw prints in the soil near the path.

This trail is, unsurprisingly, more popular in the summer, but also not super busy compared to some other hikes in the area.

Easy directions-To get to the main falls follow the main path all the way to the Culver. Once there hop on the road and walk up about 5 to ten minutes.

Take the same path back and you won't get lost. Little Warning- there is a bit of a hill for the first 10 to 15 minutes, but don't let that turn you away because it's pretty flat once up top. Great family hike, kids played in the water, so wear the appropriate...
