Only about 10 minutes from downtown Reno, on Woodchuck Circle, is the trailhead that will take you to a very different world, to lush Hunter Creek Falls. The trail starts at the parking area. A gravel road eventually drops to Hunter Creek, where you can use the stepping stones, walk through the water, or cross the stream using a couple of wide planks some kind souls have placed over the water. Close to the top, the trail continues through the trees and after one more creek crossing you will reach Hunter Creek Falls, which consists of two sets of falls dropping down between forested hillsides and steep rocky banks. Like all falls in Nevada, the amount of water in the falls depends on the time of the year. The best time to visit is after heavy storms.
Address: Hunter Creek Trail, Reno, NV 89511
