Santa Ynez Falls

12/19/17

I went on December 18,2017 and we were so excited to see the waterfall but there wasn’t any water, kind of as if it dried out recently because there was just water dripping down from leaves where the waterfall was supposed to be. But the hiking/trail there is pretty fun and a bit creepy, I would say it’s about 2-3 miles, you end up getting to a point where you just have to go climb the big rocks, basically just following where the water that remains is coming from. At first you kind of feel like there wouldn’t even be a waterfall cause there’s just plants and trees everywhere, it feels like a forest, but then you start seeing what seems to be like a river and tons of rocks on the side and so you just continue on the trail and eventually find signs that tell you which way to the waterfall and eventually you get there, but it’s still pleasant without the waterfall, kind of. I’d recommend it definitely.
