Lower Shamokin Fall Trail is the longest destination trail on the property; its end is at the base of a cascading waterfall that begins just below the Upper Shamokin Falls Trail.
From the parking area, the trail follows a gravel two-track to Peggy's Pinch pump station and power station. Stay to the right of the pump house building and cross the pedestrian footbridge, turn right on the jeep road. At the red gate, there is a sign saying that the road is to be used only by owners and accompanied guests. This only applies to vehicle traffic, as the blue blazed trail follows this road for about three-quarters of a mile, then veers off to the left, leaving the jeep road at a sign. From there it is purely foot trail up to the falls, rocky in places.
