Virgin Creek Falls Trailhead

Directions

OK so this has got to be the easiest waterfall access that at the same times makes you feel like you're still in the middle of the wilderness.

NOTE: parking for this is very limited and in a residential area of Girdwood. Be respectful as you find a parking spot along the road without blocking driveways etc. Enjoy the very short "walk" ALL seasons to this awesome waterfall! The walk does cross some tree roots and it can be icy in the winter months, but it is a very short walk (around 1/3 of a mile).
