This is less of a hike and more of a brief walk down to the waterfall. Most of the path is along a flight of stairs that descend to the falls, which is well worth the trip since you can walk behind it! Hiking poles are not necessary, and during the warmer months, sandals would suffice instead of boots.

There is no drinking water available at the trailhead, and only two vault toilets. There are also several waterfalls further down the gorge worth stopping it should you find the time. Not all are named, but you will find plenty of swimming holes and roadside pull-offs to enjoy a picnic as you drive towards Franklin. The aptly named Bust-Your-Butt Falls is also just down the mountain, a (humorously) popular swimming hole with no signage.
