Cunningham Fall State Park is home to a variety of trails but a local favorite is the trail that leads to the waterfall.

Be sure to wear sneakers and prepare for some bumps. This trek is not ideal for strollers, but it is short enough for children to enjoy. Eventually, you'll reach Cunningham Falls, which is Maryland's highest cascading waterfall.

Sit among the rocks and enjoy watching (and listening to) the water cascade down. Prepare to stay and chill out for a while. And don't forget to check out this natural wonder during wintertime, too!

And of course, autumn is also an extremely gorgeous time to visit this park, too.
