    If you're looking for a place to unwind and submerge all 5 of your senses in nature.... This is the place you want to come to. I just love finding a nice seat by the water and just meditate. The sounds of the rushing water and the birds chirping brings me so much life and energy! I always leave feeling refreshed and recharged. I highly recommend.

    First time here such a beautiful place to come visit the waterfalls here the trail is a out and back trail turn around come back the way you started. There is a large concrete bridge that goes across the stream but that appears to be gated off and not used anymore! You will not be disappoint highly recommend stopping by here checking this place out.

    Very pretty place. Very busy on nice days! Small trail but peaceful and beautiful. My only word of caution is for people with younger children to really watch them. There are parts of the trail without guardrails or rope with very steep cliffs!!! Lots of people not following signage to stay out of designated areas.

    Was a pretty cool stop on our way back to Michigan from Tennessee and West Virginia. I thought I had visited this waterfall one time before but to be honest it didn’t look that familiar. I’ve done a lot of the waterfalls in Ohio and if you like waterfalls as much as I do a forsure recommend you check this one out. It is nice and relaxing here and during our visit it wasn’t that busy so that was a huge plus making it easy for us to get in an out. Also, If you fly drones, you can also fly your drone here. Just be careful of course and be mindful of others.

    Wow - this was so unexpected and beautiful, and right in the heart of downtown Dublin, Ohio. You'll find the trailhead to the falls clearly marked at the rear of Dublin Veteran's Park. To call it a hike would be a stretch; it's more like a short walk on a wooded path - 10 minutes tops. There's a staircase that takes you down to the stream, where you can see two cascading waterfalls, small and medium-sized. Continue a little further on the trail for the observation deck that overlooks the largest of the falls. Signs are posted requesting people and animals stay out of the stream, but that's largely ignored, especially on a hot summer day. Definitely worth the trip, and it's free!

    Absolutely love that you can walk practically this whole thing with all ages. I have 5 kids 5 to 14 and we walked most of it in the water. Just watch for holes. It's beautiful tho

    Beautiful Area!!!! Very peaceful!!! Nice place to sit or take a walk!!! It was a beautiful day...therefore a lot of people were out! I stayed at the top.....I haven't ventured to the bottom yet....so there's more to explore! My pics don't even begin to give it justice! The falls are beautiful!!! Family friendly as well!

    This place has short trails for a casual walk. Small kids can easily do this. There is a waterfall year round, and I have always felt safe there. It is a place of tranquility.

    Very beautiful waterfalls that were even more so today after we've had so much rain lately. I hate to say it but Indian Run Falls is not a secret anymore.

    A beautiful hidden treasure with winding trails alongside a beautiful creek with cascading falls. The lush greenery made the perfect canopy to shield from the afternoon sun and kept the temp cool enough to enjoy the trek. There are multiple trails to give you a variety of views of the river and falls. I could have stayed all day just to soak in the sights and sounds of Mother Nature.

    Very beautiful relaxing spot, my husband and I went on easter Sunday and thankfully there was hardly anyone else around. Got some great shots of the small waterfalls. Unfortunately there are no stairs to go down to the bottom of the falls to get a better photo... just a VERY steep slope that isn't recommended unless you have good hiking boots and are good with climbing. Overall nice and quiet, got soem good shots anyway.

    Great walk for all ages n sizes. A beautiful waterfall and scenery I couldn't grow old of. I enjoyed taking photos and listening to the birds. A cardinal followed me everywhere. There are places with picnic tables shelter n trash cans off to the side of the trail.

    Really liked this place. I don't understand why there are signs saying its restricted to go down to the creek. We went down anyway just to get our paws wet! Unfortunately there was a lot more trash in some areas of the trail than I'd like to see. Possibly has something to do with it being next to a school and ball park.

    Wry beautiful and peaceful. I like how you can walk up right next to the water and get a nice view of the falls.

    Have I told you how awesome Dublin is?!?! Follow the Indian Run Falls Trail and you end up at the Dublin Grounds of Rembrance. The views were breathtaking on both sides. If you want a quick view, at the entrance, go to the left. If you want to see more and walk on a trail, go to the right. It was a bit muddy in some places, but we're in the outdoors so a lil dirt is to be expected. You do not have to walk the whole trail and it's not long if you do. I'm turning into an outdoor person. #birthdayshenanigans

    This place is awesome, and it's right in town. There is a decent amount of parking available. They have 2 shelters and tables to use for picnics. There are 2 viewing decks and both are wheelchair accessible, as the path to those is flat. Nice place to spend some time listening and viewing the falls. And Hayden Run Falls is just a short drive from these.

    Nice park to go for a nature walk. They also moved a cabin there that was built in 1850. I met a man named John who was in the process of restoring the fireplace to its former glory. Very nice man and full of information, if you catch him there.

    A beautiful place to visit. There was a cabin on the property, but they had updated it with new windows. Wanted to look at the history sign about the cabin, but there were multiple people taking family photos that day, In front of the cabin And we did not want to interrupt the photo sessions. Also, somebody had a party on the walking trail and left a bunch of paper confetti and trash on the trail.

    Very pretty water fall and stream..peaceful walking trail. This trail will take you through the woods into the town of Dublin and or across the Dublin Link Bridge that goes over the Scioto River.

  • 5/5 Brittany S. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely perfect! The trails are fairly easy- some stairs (steep climbs and bridges)- great for all ages! Very peaceful, never really crowded.

  • 3/5 Dave K. 1 year ago on Google
    This was a beautiful park, with a beautiful trail. It was just unfortunate that I visited when the creek was pretty dry, and thus no waterfall was present. Bummer, since the park is named for the Falls.

  • 5/5 Cassandra L. 10 months ago on Google
    Beautiful trail, beautiful river, not a lot of falls. But definitely worth checking it out. We enjoy going here every time we are in the area. Free. Decent parking.

  • 5/5 Finn C. 11 months ago on Google
    This place is beautiful. I've been coming here for years. The only downside is that people climb down by the falls and leave their trash in the water, but the park employees are very fast at cleaning the trash up. I proposed to my girlfriend here and it was the perfect spot.

    Very nice gorge and falls. even water in October. Short trail but one of the nicest ravines in columbus

  • 5/5 David A. 1 year ago on Google
    Super pretty area! Loved the walking trail that went into the woods. There are trails that go into wooded areas that feel very nice and natural. There are spots to sit and visit. Enjoyed this park quite a bit although it is fairly small.

  • 4/5 Esther K. 3 years ago on Google
    VERY small, but simple and beautiful!! Not much parking though and can get crowded quickly!

  • 5/5 Joseph M. 3 years ago on Google
    Seasonal waterfall but still a great fall stroll through the mature ravine.

  • 5/5 mary e. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful. Easy to walk trails.

  • 4/5 Nia H. 3 years ago on Google
    Nifty little space hidden amongst civilization.... only thing is that you're not allowed to go anywhere near the river. They even have a tempting bridge that you get excited walking up to thinking you'll get to walk on it... only to find it's been chained up and locked. No access. It also runs right next to a baseball or soccer field... so if you're trying to get COMPELTELY away from civilization, this isnt the place but if you're looking for a quick breath of fresh air amongst the everyday mundane... it is not a bad place :)

  • 5/5 Megan E. 3 years ago on Google
    Definitely worth the stop if in the area. Waterfall has good flow and super easy walk. Make sure to see it from above too

  • 5/5 Monica P. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful place to quietly be with nature. There are so few of these places left in the world. Please be sure to leave it cleaner than how you found it ❀️ happy hiking!

  • 4/5 Kelly C. 3 years ago on Google
    The park is well maintained. Many signs warning about the dangers of going off trail. Popular place; there were people setting up for a couple to get engaged.

  • 2/5 Erica H. 3 years ago on Google
    The water level was really low. Unfortunately no waterfalls. You are discouraged to go into the gorge as well because of a city ordnance, nice walk through the woods, there are several observation decks, was a short drive where we were from the botanical garden in Columbus, and the parking lot was sooo small.

  • 5/5 Nichol M. 3 years ago on Google
    So peaceful and relaxing place to visit and enjoy listening to the water from the waterfalls.

  • 5/5 jeremy f. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful area with a couple of trail options with plenty of places to stop and rest. Animal friendly.

  • 5/5 Dattatraya B. 3 years ago on Google
    Short and simple trail.Great for a daily walk. Can be visited from Dublin library side. It's very small fall but well maintained and located in the heart of Dublin.Great for families. Visit if you are in Dublin.

  • 5/5 Deborah S. 3 years ago on Google
    Scenic

  • 5/5 Jeff Z. 3 years ago on Google
    Take both trails, especially the one to the left. You can hike down to the larger falls, if able.

  • 4/5 Cindy N. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Chris G. 3 years ago on Google
    Best falls in central Ohio. Clean trail. Great for a walk.

  • 4/5 Peak and P. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful and cold in the winter. Worth a stop.

  • 3/5 Katie W. 3 years ago on Google
    It's a decent little park for going for a walk, however the water falls are barely visible from the trails so don't plan on seeing too much other than brush and trees. The lower areas to actually observe the falls are all "restricted access" with posted signs.

  • 5/5 Lyana S. 3 years ago on Google
    Great waterfalls! 3 here to look at!

  • 5/5 Phillip P. 3 years ago on Google

    Love it

  • 5/5 Megan L. 3 years ago on Google
    Love this place! You never know it would be as beautiful as it is especially coming off of a huge intersection. Kids and I walk down stream a few times a year, very peaceful and better when it's not crowded. We've spent 3-4hrs here just playing in water and bringing a packed lunch!
