Cedar Creek Trailhead

Cedar Creek Trailhead #476

Trailhead gives access to Cedar Creek Trail #476 which enters Lake Chelan-Sawtooth Wilderness at 9.2 miles, goes over Abernathy Pass and connects to North Creek Trail #413 at 9.6 miles. 

Because of its low elevation this trail is one of the first trails to open up in the spring. Reach the falls in 1.7 miles. The falls are below the trail so use caution as the area around the falls is quite precipitous and there are no fences or barriers. Cedar Creek pours from pool to pool, then drops 50 to 60 feet in a series of falls. 

The trail continues beyond the falls to Abernathy Pass, where it enters the Lake Chelan-Sawtooth Wilderness. Bicycles are not allowed beyond this point.
