Falls Creek Falls Trailhead is located in Southwestern Washington within the Gifford Pinchot National Forest (aka big foot land). This trail is open to equestrians and eventually connects to Falls Creek Falls Horse Camp. Equestrians should use Falls Creek Trail #152 which is open to horses. Falls Creek Trail #152A does not allow horses due to a suspension bridge that would be unsafe to cross. Falls Creek Lava Caves are located between the trailhead and horse camp as well.
