This is my 100th trip report which has me excited but unfortunately starting to hum "one hundred bottles of beer on the wall," which is oddly inappropriate, save the 100 part.

We stopped by Ludlow Falls on our way back from a Port Townsend area  kayaking trip. It's a couple of miles from the Hood Canal bridge, pretty convenient. As an earlier trip reporter mentioned, you do feel like your driving across a parking lot right before you get to the trail parking.

There are good interpretive signs with line drawings that accompany the info. Its a shady stroll and read. The stairs get you up to view the top of the falls with a couple of nice viewpoints. They were still running nicely given how we are at the end of an already dry season. If you continue the loop back, you are away from the water and soon back at the bridge you see at the beginning. Barely an water going under that one right now.

100 hikes that I have done, 100 I have done...

East and informative with lots of signs about the foliage and history of the area.

The trail wasn’t well marked and the trail map we got at a nearby kiosk wasn’t very accurate, but other than that this was a great short hike.

From the trailhead, follow the path straight under the wooden arch until it comes to a split. This is where the loop starts. There’s a couple flights of stairs in the middle of the loop, so if you’d rather go down the stairs turn right at the split and go across the bridge.

We went left and got confused when the dirt trail terminated at a paved trail. There was no useful signage here (just an arrow pointing back the way we came), but we turned right because we could hear the waterfall.

The trail descended gently into the valley and paralleled the stream before climbing a few flights of stairs. The stairs were shallow with a graspable rail so they were fairly easy.

At the top there were several viewpoints of the falls and some benches. From there the trail ascended gently until we crossed the sturdy wooden bridge. We turned left to head back to the trailhead.

The falls were still full even though it hadn’t rained in awhile and the interpretive signage was interesting. The trail itself was in good condition and not crowded even though it was a Saturday with good weather. We will definitely be back again.

The cutest well done trail I have been on yet. The use of items that built the area were used along the trail such as chain and beams. There were lots of informational plaques which made the hike longer than expected. I will say it seemed difficult to get to using my cars GPS. You’ll want to take the road between the RV park and the bank and there was plenty of parking once found.

Incredibly easy walk. Kids absolutely loved the waterfall. Of note the coordinates took me to the RV park. It’s past that turn down the road before the bank.
