Water Source: Van Trump Creek
Waterfall Description: This tall waterfall is one of the park’s most spectacular, with the highest drop falling over 300 feet. It was named Comet Falls because it resembles the tail of a comet.
Viewing Location: The Comet Falls Trail parking area is located two miles above Cougar Rock Campground on the road to Paradise. A strenuous hike of 1.9 miles leads to the base of the falls, gaining 1,200 feet in elevation. It is best to wait until the snow has completely melted from the trail, as it can be treacherous until summer.
