O-Kun-De-Kun Falls

This little-publicized waterfall is a real treat for hikers. It's reached by a 1.3-mile segment that goes through a tall pine forest, passing along the way dramatic undercut rock ledges and an unnamed waterfall that lets hikers go under the ledge and look out through the falling water.

O-Kun-De-Kun Falls itself makes a long, straight drop over massive ledges. Just below the main falls, a beautiful suspension footbridge carries the trail across the Baltimore River and offers a fine view of the falls.

Smaller falls upstream are also reached by the North Country Trail.

Off U.S. 45 eight miles north of Bruce Crossing. "O-Kun-De-Kun Falls" sign and a parking area are on the east side of the highway. The more interesting trail is not the straight, direct, wide Forest Service access route. Handicap access: no.
