I found myself holding my son's hand the ENTIRE hike. My 5 year old daughter handled it pretty well as she stayed close to the inside and was only a couiple of feet in front of me, but my 4 yr old son just couldn't see to grasp the idea of safely walking. A beautiful hike that we all enjoyed, and a slightly scary one that parents of over-active kids will have to be careful of. The waterfall is absolutely amazing though.
