When there aren't drought like conditions this park has an amazing waterfall. The park is a nice place for a picnic. I believe this is a four seasons park, I have visited the park in all four seasons and its absolutely beautiful. More

Kent Falls has nice picnic areas. But the highlight is the trail that climbs the multiple level waterfalls. The air always seems cooler near the falls, even on a hot day. And if you like walking in the little pools formed at each level, there's plenty of opportunity there! More

The drive to Kent is beautiful. Pack a picnic, bring a Frisbee and hiking shoes. The walk up the falls is not to bad but a bit steep at times. The falls after a good rain storm will impress! More

Although this is a peaceful setting and offers more in the summer, picnic areas, etc. once you have climbed the falls on designated trails there isn't much else to hold your interest. More

a lovely and easy way to visit nature without having to make a total day of it. A quick quarter mile up hill walk with clear path, stairs and rails.Picnic grounds and field. If you are in the area worth the stop. More
