Suggest an early morning start at 7:30am as the parkinglot gets full around 8am. It's an easy hike, and quite nice to cross over shallow water crossings. Best to go now before the water dries up. Eaton Canyon Natural Area is located at 1750 North Altadena Drive, one block north of New York Drive in Pasadena, California. There is a sign on the east side of the street which clearly marks the entrance to the Park. From the 210 Freeway eastbound, exit at Sierra Madre Boulevard/Altadena Drive. Turn left (north) at the first light (Altadena Drive) and go 1.6 miles to the park entrance. From the 210 Freeway westbound, exit at San Gabriel Boulevard/San Marino. Turn right (north) at the second light (Altadena Drive) and go 1.5 miles to the park entrance. Place your cursor over the star on the map below for further directions. Eaton Canyon Falls For a spectacular view of Eaton Canyon, hike to the 50-foot Eaton Canyon Waterfall. You can get there either by parking in the Nature Center parking lot, crossing the wash, and continuing 1.5 miles up a slight incline, or by parking at the Pinecrest gate and hiking 0.4 miles north from the bridge. To get to the Pinecrest gate, go north on Altadena Drive one mile past the entrance to Eaton Canyon. Turn right on Crescent, then right again on Pinecrest. Observe parking signs carefully. There is water at the falls year-round, but in dry seasons and during the summer months the stream bed may be partially or totally dry. In order to reach the falls you'll have to cross the stream bed several times, but only in the wettest months will this be particularly difficult. It is not a steep incline, so children should be able to make the trip with help from their parents. You will be required to climb over some rocks.
