Hatchery Creek Trail, just off the pavement via the Coffman Cove road, is a half-mile boardwalk trail winding through open mossy older-growth forest and muskegs. It terminates in a large viewing platform, where visitors can see salmon jumping the falls during runs. Black bears sometimes appear when the area is quiet. Human fisher-folk do well above and below the falls; pay attention to local restrictions and closures posted on the platform.

Hatchery Creek Trail is off of FH 23 on the way to Coffman Cove. Boardwalk trail winds through a muskeg area with interesting flowers and vegetation. The viewing platform at the creek has a great view of the falls and fish weir. Black bears frequent the area when the salmon are running in mid to late summer.
