Hooker Falls is the most well known waterfall in the original DuPont State Forest, and it is easily accessible year round. The falls is at the site of a former gristmill, where Little River drops off a 13-foot high natural ledge before flowing into Cascade Lake.

Walk around the gate in the access area and along the dirt road, bearing left at the fork and continuing parallel to the river. In a few minutes you will approach the top of Hooker Falls. Continue straight on the path to good viewing location at the pool below. There is a handicap viewing area that can be used with a special pass.
