Love this trail during the fall and spring. Great birding location for chaparral and coastal sage resident birds. It’s nice to see there’s a conservancy managing this area as well. During our most recent visit, the falls were dry. I anticipate the water to be flowing better after this year’s El nino

I love this place and i have been there many times since 2011. I finally was able to make it all the way to the final waterfall. These are all the waterfalls, Maidenhair Falls Grand Chasm Falls Moss Grotto Falls and Ribbon Rock Falls Thalehaha Falls and Roaring Rift Falls Leontine Falls The last fall trail is not for the timid or inexperienced. Here is a video of my adventeure(Excuse my porfanity)

A nice quick, easy hike, about 2 miles round trip. The falls are often dry if it hasn’t rained recently, but it is still pretty. At the fork, follow the path that goes down by the pipes, not up. You do have to climb up and down some rocks, so good idea to wear hiking shoes or something with good grip.

Went Hiking on the Rubio Canyon Trail this past Saturday with some friends. We have gone on most of the hikes in the area, but we wanted to check out something new. After, doing some research I found Rubio Canyon. There wasn’t too much information about this hike, but I decided to check it out. Luckily is was a great hike. This hike is relatively short at about 2 miles round trip. Much of the hike is on a dirt path, but as you get closer to the waterfall you start to cross a few streams of water. There is also a few rocks you need to climb over. Nothing too strenuous. It’s actually a moderate hike. I like this hike because it wasn’t very crowded. We did pass a few other hikers, but it wasn’t crazy busy. It might be because it was quite foggy that day. Overall it was a nice leisurely hike. Clean trail and not too busy. Check out my friend Alan W.‘s review for directions to the trail head. No use in repeating that info. Trail head is located in between houses in a residential area.

Hike is not very long, I read its only 1.3 miles round trip but it felt longer than that, maybe 2 miles. Half of the trek is a dirt path and very easy with a slight incline. The 2nd half is more rocky terrain, and the water runs through part of this terrain so some rocks can be slippery. The day I went was a little drizzly and really dense fog. I will post some pictures up. If you looking for quick hike with a waterfall in the end this is one quick and easy. I saw less than a dozen hikers the whole trek, maybe 3 groups. Parking is just on the neighborhood street, very few cars on the day I went. Below are instructions to get to the trailhead. Keep in mind the entrance is really hard to find its literally next to a house and between two houses. To get to the trailhead: From the 210 Freeway in Pasadena, take exit 26 and head north on Lake Ave. Drive three miles to Dolores Drive and turn right. Make the fourth right(after 0.4 miles) on Rubio Canyon Road. After ¼ mile, turn left to stay on Rubio Canyon Road, and then make a quick right on Rubio Vista Drive. Less than a quarter mile up, find the trailhead on the right side of the road between houses numbered 1351 and 1342.
