Review & FAQ:

Beginning at the Rose Valley Campground in Los Padres National Forest, the Rose Valley Falls Trail is a half-mile trail that leads to the base of a small but beautiful waterfall. Hikers will cross over Rose Creek several times before continuing up the canyon to the waterfall. The water runs over an arkosic sandstone cliff, which is easily eroded; visitors are asked to refrain from climbing around on the steep sections. Parking on the road outside the campground is free, but visitors who choose to park in the campground will have to pay a day-use fee.
