Hawk Falls is a 25' falls located in Hickory Run State Park. Hawk Run tumbles over a rock face on its way down to Mud Run. This is the largest, most easily visited waterfall in a 30 mile radius.

The trailhead of the falls is located off of Route 534, just east of where it goes under I-476. There is a parking area on the south side of the road. The trail starts at the guardrail where 534 crosses Hawk Run. The trail is fairly easy. The trail will take you to the top of the falls, or you can continue down to where Hawk Run enters Mud Creek below the falls. There is a large rock shelf below the falls from which you can get a nice view of the falls, but you either have to climb down to it from above, or climb up some large rocks from below.
