June 19, 2026, Reinecker Creek

Reinecker Creek tumbles through a narrow forested canyon on its way to Margaret Falls, carving through the rock that gives this trail its dramatic scenery. The creek flows year-round, with spring snowmelt and periods of heavy rain creating particularly impressive cascades and fast-moving water. Moss-covered boulders, cedar trees, and the constant sound of rushing water make the creek a defining feature of the Margaret Falls Trail.

This short forest trail follows Reinecker Creek through a lush canyon of moss-covered rock walls and towering cedars. Wooden bridges and boardwalks help navigate the damp terrain, while the sound of rushing water accompanies much of the walk. The route's most distinctive feature is a natural rock passage near the end of the trail, just before reaching Margaret Falls.

This spot along the trail is where Reinecker Creek flows into Heralds Bay. You're treated to sweeping views of the bay and the end of the waterway that feeds the flow of Margaret Falls.

The small bridge over the river invites you to take a breather and cool off.
