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 6 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Reno, the closest town.
When to go: Spring snowmelt (Apr-Jun). Like most waterfalls, Hunter Creek 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.
