Explore the stunning landscapes surrounding Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural masterpiece, Fallingwater, in Mill Run, Pennsylvania. Hike the popular Fallingwater Loop Trail, a scenic 0.9-mile loop offering unparalleled views of Fallingwater and the cascading Bear Run waterfalls. Discover hidden gems along several spur trails leading to prime lookout points, including the renowned "best viewing area" and the breathtaking Paradise Overlook Trail nestled behind the iconic house. Please note that a $10 per person entry fee (as of April 2019) is required to access the Fallingwater grounds and trails.
For alternative perspectives and a longer hike, consider the Paradise Overlook Trail, a short and easy 0.7-mile trek that unveils picturesque vistas of the Youghiogheny River. While accessing this trail directly from Fallingwater requires the aforementioned $10 grounds fee, you can enjoy it for free by embarking on a more extended 3-mile hike from the nearby Bear Run Nature Reserve. Be mindful that the trail can be muddy at times, and the trailhead is conveniently situated behind Fallingwater, near a designated staff parking area.
