Hawk Falls — Local services in Kidder Township

An easy hike down very well maintained trail from the parking lot across from Boulder Field trailhead access on Rt. 534. When rain is plentiful this falls is bountiful and pleasant. It has what appears to be twins chutes with a 30’ drop into plunge pool which culminates into a smaller collector cascade fall before the confluence with Mud Run. Beautiful views looking down Mud Run as path walks in conjunction with. Notable is the arched 476 highway bridge hovering above Mud Run.

There's a spot on the hike down where you can look at the top of the falls.

There are good, more difficult hikes immediately adjacent to the falls. The Mad Run river near it is clear and cool--despite its name. You'll get a little noise from the highway overpass that isn't far...
