Five waterfalls sit near Ebensburg, and a single unhurried day covers them all. White Tail Falls and Winding Staircase Falls carry the moderate ratings, each a two mile round trip climbing about 300 feet. Laurel Falls eases off to a mile and a half of gentle grade, dog welcome. Cole Run Falls spills fifteen feet in Forbes State Forest a tenth of a mile from the car, and Adams Falls along Linn Run gets you to water almost as fast. Leashes work fine on all three easy walks.
