Rockwell Falls Trail Details

Rockwell Falls is actually two waterfalls. The one most visible from the trail drops about 40 feet. Another waterfall is hidden behind the main falls and is harder to see. Getting to Rockwell Falls involves hiking through prime moose habitat, through forests and meadows, and even crossing a suspension bridge above Paradise Creek before you arrive at the falls. Remember, Glacier is grizzly country. Carry bear spray, make noise and travel in groups. Access is via the South Shore Trailhead at Two Medicine Lake.
