Tip Toe Falls, Waterfall in Portola Redwoods State Park, California.
Tip Toe Falls features two tiers with a total height of 14 feet, cascading over mossy cliffs into a shallow pool surrounded by redwood trees.
The waterfall sits within Portola Redwoods State Park, named after Spanish explorer Gaspar de Portolá who led expeditions through California in the 18th century.
Local nature photographers frequently document the seasonal changes of the falls, capturing its varying water flows throughout different times of the year.
Visitors can reach the falls via a 2-mile round trip hike on the Iverson Trail, which starts at the park visitor center and requires crossing Pescadero Creek.
The upper tier of the falls remains hidden from most visitors, located several hundred feet upstream in a secluded area surrounded by dense vegetation.
