Chapel Falls
A roughly 18-meter waterfall on the Chapel Trail, tumbling into a deep gorge and flowing into Chapel Lake. It is the first stop on the way to Chapel Rock.
Chapel Falls lies about 2 km north of the Chapel–Mosquito parking lot, where Chapel Creek drops roughly 18 meters over a rock face into a gorge before flowing into Chapel Lake. The trail is wide and gentle, with a viewing platform for seeing the falls from the side. Continue about 3 km to reach Chapel Rock and Chapel Beach, which can be linked into a loop. The parking lot is reached by about 13 km of gravel road and requires a National Lakeshore pass. In peak season, arrive early to find a space.
