Hayden Run Falls

This past weekend, the husband and I ventured to Dublin to run a few errands (and I have to mention – an amazing lunch at 101 Beer Kitchen was had – definitely check out this spot if you haven’t before!) and we had time for quick stop at Hayden Run Falls Park.

    Whenever we get out-of-town visitors, we always take them there. 🙂 Unfortunately, early spring, after the snow melts, is the best time for the water flow, but it’s usually rather cold still then. And even with the stairs, it can be a difficult time for anyone who isn’t in decent shape. It’s definitely worth a trip, though!

    I went there today for the first time. With all the rain we’ve had in the last week the falls have grown to be about 3 times the size!

    We went there last year. 🙂 I bet it’s pretty impressive right now with all of the rain we have had lately!
