The Cataract Trail takes you through a lush section of the Mount Tamalpais Watershed to Cataract Falls, a set of small waterfalls and cascades. The trail follows an out and back route. Because of the length, most consider this a hard trail. There are several ways to access the falls, but this south up, out-and-back route along the cataract trail is the most popular with Strava members.
