Hiking
From the Giant Forest area, head towards the Congress Trail. Follow the signs for the trailhead and start your hike. The trail is well-marked and takes you through beautiful groves of giant sequoias.

The trail will lead you to the picturesque Marble Falls. Make sure to carry water and snacks, as it’s a moderate hike.
Shuttle
If you are near the Lodgepole Visitor Center, you can take the park shuttle that runs during the summer months. Board the shuttle at the Lodgepole stop and ask the driver to drop you off at the Marble Falls trailhead stop (check the shuttle schedule for specific stop availability). From the shuttle stop, follow the Marble Falls Trail for about 1.5 miles to reach the waterfall.
