Waterfall Hikes Near Stockton, CA
within 50 miles
Stockton's list runs three falls deep. Finnegan Falls carries the fullest trail data, a moderate three mile out and back climbing 500 feet. Salmon Falls, flagged historical in our records, takes about two miles of walking and allows dogs, though a historical tag usually means the water no longer runs the way it once did. Tehan Falls appears with a name only. When Stockton hikers want more, the Mother Lode canyons past the fifty mile line hold plenty.
