点评:This is one of the easier falls to get to in the area. It is right off of 19 which is a 2-lane road. To get to either the upper or lower falls you park at the DeSoto Falls recreation area. This location has a campground and a parking lot next to it. There were about 40 parking spots for cars at the parking lot portion along with a bathroom and informational board. If you are going to go here make sure you look at their website and download the app or purchase a parking pass before you get there. There is very poor cell service when you are at the parking lot and the sign recommends going online to purchase a pass through the app but with poor cell service that is problematic. A parking pass is $5 and can be purchased online or at any state park. The trailhead for both the upper and lower falls is right after the campground and across a small bridge spanning a lovely creek. The upper falls is to the right and the lower falls is to the left. The upper falls are about ¾ of a mile up a fairly gradual trail for most of the path. The path is nice and the viewing platform is fairly large with a bench at the back facing the falls. I really enjoyed this hike. They were in a drought when I went so the falls are not really full but the view was still nice. If you feel adventurous, I would recommend doing the lower falls after this. Enjoy.
翻译:这是该地区最容易到达的瀑布之一。它就在 19 号公路旁边,这是一条 2 车道的道路。要前往上瀑布或下瀑布,请将车停在德索托瀑布休闲区。这个位置旁边有一个露营地和一个停车场。停车场部分大约有 40 个停车位,还有浴室和信息板。如果您要去这里,请确保在到达那里之前查看他们的网站并下载应用程序或购买停车证。当您在停车场时,手机服务非常差,并且标牌建议您通过应用程序在线购买通行证,但手机服务差是有问题的。停车证售价 5 美元,可以在网上或在任何州立公园购买。上瀑布和下瀑布的起点就在露营地后面,穿过一座横跨美丽小溪的小桥。右边是上瀑布,左边是下瀑布。上游瀑布大约有 3/4 英里,大部分路径都是相当平缓的。路径很好,观景台相当大,后面有一个面向瀑布的长凳。我真的很喜欢这次徒步旅行。我去的时候正值干旱,所以瀑布不是很满,但景色仍然不错。如果您喜欢冒险,我建议您在此之后再去下瀑布。享受。
