Eaton Canyon Falls is a modest but scenic plunge waterfall in California, falling 40 ft.
The falls are fed by Eaton Creek. It lies in Los Angeles, California. The site is on public land managed by Eaton Canyon Natural Area / Angeles National Forest (USFS).
This is a moderate hike waterfall: a longer day hike, roughly one to several miles each way. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 3.5 miles round trip. The nearest town is Altadena.
When to go: Winter to spring after rains (Jan-Apr). Like most waterfalls, Eaton Canyon Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
