Porcupine Falls
Experience this 0.8-mile out-and-back trail near Lovell, Wyoming. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 37 min to complete. The Porcupine Falls trail begins at the parking lot and descends steeply down to the falls below. Although this trail does have 90+ stairs built into it, the remainder of the trail is very steep and requires caution during descending and ascending. The views at the bottom, however, are worth it. Offering unobstructed views of the beautiful Porcupine Falls.
