"A great 2 hour round trip hike. A lot of stepping upward but definitely worth the hike to see the falls. A wide path, great for dogs!"

"We went on perfect weather conditions. It took us 2h50 to climb up by Lion's head. After a 40min break, we went down by Tuckerman's ravine in 2h10, for a total of 5h40. I recommend the same trails!!!"
