Shelving Rock Falls - Tourist attraction in Fort Ann - , USA

Absolutely beautiful area to hike and explore. The road to get back to the trailhead is a mix of paved and gravel. The road is well maintained. There are 3 different parking areas. I visited on Monday afternoon and only passed 2 people on the trail. Right at the beginning of the trail it's a little bit of rock hopping but then the trail smoothes out. A short walk down to the falls. There are many opportunities to take pics of the falls and the stream.

One of the few “easy” hikes in the area. Great views of unspoiled Lake George. Bring a bathing suit for a dip in the shallow, sandy, crystal clear water. Outhouses all along the trail. Pick up your trash people. No respect for nature.

Lovely place, about 10 min walk to the falla, you need to go down along the falls, no particular trail to go to the bottom but it's pretty easy, we did it with my 7 yo and then continue on red trail and you'll get to lake George

This hike was so enjoyable! There are many spots to jump into the lake off of the trail, beautiful waterfalls, and streams. We went in august and lived the entire hike!

Beautiful nature and falls. The path to get to the falls is not easy, as you have to go through rocks and wooded slippery areas. Once you get there, the falls will make the trip worthwhile. If you plan to go, use proper gear.

Parked at lot #5 and walked along the lake. Beautiful views! #disabledhikers well defined paths with few easily manageable trees down. The hill back to the parking lot I was glad to have my trekking pole.

Off the beaten path, short 1/2 mile hike to some beautiful falls with small wading pools. We wore our bathing suits and dipped in, felt wonderful. Go into the lower pool. It's like sitting in a tub. Water is very cold, but super refreshing. Great for kids. Definitely recommend wearing hiking boots or solid sneakers for climbing the rocks.

Great little winter hike! Trail is primarily flat and easy to follow. Parked in the first parking lot, backtracked over the bridge and went around the guardrail to reach the beginning of the trail. We went during the winter so we had the falls all to ourselves. Beautiful quick and easy hike with a big reward at the end! Definitely stop in and check out this waterfall if you are in the area!
