Waterfall Hikes Near Manteca, CA
within 50 miles
Manteca sits in the flat of the San Joaquin Valley, so both falls on this page take some driving. Finnegan Falls carries the fuller trail record, three miles out and back with 500 feet of climb, rated moderate. Tehan Falls is listed too, though there are no trail numbers for it yet. Two is a thin list, and the honest advice is to push past the fifty mile line into the Sierra when you want a full weekend of water.
