My first thoughts are to Hidden Falls and to Fairy Falls, both best in spring and fall weather. Hidden Falls is in Placer, is shadier and has more trail options for distance. Bathrooms and parking are nice. Fairy (Shingle or Beale)Falls in Spenceville Refuge near Camp Far West has a longer trail section exposed to the sun. I have seen wagons or trail strollers, and kids doing the hike. It will be most pleasant started ealier in the day. Swimming at the pool just past the bottom falls is a favorite with kids!Peachy Hikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02558992198771396930noreply@blogger.com
