The trail is lined with sweet smelling ferns. This trail offers plenty of shade which would be good for a midday hike. The trail starts from the Elk Meadows Day Use parking area. Start from behind the restrooms and walk down the paved bike path. Soon you will see a sign directing you to Trillium Falls Trail. The trail is well worn but not marked except for an occasional wood post and arrow pointing the direction.\u00a0 The trail is a little less than 3 miles and has an elevation gain of just over 500 feet. I hiked this in late afternoon and didn&#8217;t see a single person. The highlight of this hike was the solitude and the small Trillium Falls. An enjoyable hike I would do again.<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<!-- MasterSlider -->\n\t\t<div id=\"P_MS6adf5a110fb1c\" class=\"master-slider-parent msl ms-parent-id-141\"

will reach Trillium Falls. It is not very big at all but it is a nice cascading fall set back in a moss and fern gully. There is a bridge directly in front which give a great location to view. It is also a nice platform for a tripod. The falls is in a location with tall trees and lots of fern. Not much light get back. I was here very late afternoon and there wasn&#8217;t much light. Fortunately I had a small tripod for my camera and it worked out well.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"csColumnGap\" style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; float: left; width: 1.04%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bluelotusadventures.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/advanced-wp-columns\/assets\/js\/plugins\/views\/img\/1x1-pixel.png\" \/><\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; float: none; display: block; visibility: hidden; width: 0px; font-size: 0px; line-height: 0;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><iframe id=\"mapmyfitness_route\" src=\"\/\/snippets.mapmycdn.com\/routes\/view\/embedded\/746472665?width=600&amp;height=400&amp;elevation=true&amp;info=true&amp;line_color=E60f0bdb&amp;rgbhex=DB0B0E&amp;distance_markers=0&amp;unit_type=imperial&amp;map_mode=TERRAIN&amp;last_updated=2018-08-07T11:18:50-04:00\" width=\"100%\" height=\"570px\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: right; padding-right: 20px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mapmyhike.com\/routes\/create\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Create Routes<\/a><br \/>\nor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mapmyhike.com\/routes\/\">Search for a route<\/a><br \/>\nfrom millions at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mapmyhike.com\">MapMyHike<\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; DETAILS Directions: From the Kuchel Visitor Center, turn left on route 101 and travel for 4.6 miles.\u00a0 Turn left on to Davidson Rd.\u00a0 Park at the Elk Meadow Picnic area.
