Located in Griggs Reservoir Park on the west side of the Scioto River, Hayden Falls is a 25-foot waterfall fed by the Hayden Run and set in a wild-looking and gorgeously scenic little gorge.

Not very well known until recently, the deep ravine was carved by the Hayden Run on its way to the Scioto River and together with the falls is a lovely spot to explore.

Hayden Falls can be reached via a stairway down into the gorge from a parking area on the south side of Hayden Run Road.

There is a boardwalk near the base of the falls that offers excellent views.
