Description

This is a beautiful natural arch/bridge in the Clifty Creek Conservation Area. There is a small waterfall nearby, as well. This natural bridge is a great spot for photos! The creek can get quite high, so be prepared to get wet if you intend to hike underneath the arch in the winter/spring. It is definitely worth the wet shoes!

Short Hike: A one mile hike from the Clifty Creek Loop Trailhead.

Semi-high water! Definitely crossable, but your feet will be wet if you don't remove your shoes!

Fallen Trees - Its very over grown right now and there are a few tress down. Bring plenty of water, because you won't find any on trail, very dry. Very steep and rocky asents and desents, sp watch your step. Treat clothes prior to hiking as ticks and mosquitoes are abundant. Probably better to go in the fall, but the views from all the Ridgelines make it worth it.
