If you enjoy hiking the Devil's Bathtub is beautiful! If you choose to go, plan on getting wet picking your way over the river multiple times. Would not recommend for small children as it's fairly strenuous and slippery in parts. There are other hikes in the area that are also lovely and more appropriate for less physically fit sightseers and small children.

From the Latchstring Inn Restaurant, be sure and take the walk way down to the foot of Spearfish Creek waterfall. A nice waterfall and fairly easy walk with nice sceneray.
