Nojoqui Falls Nojoqui Falls (pronounced "no-HO-wee") is an impressive 80ft moss and fern fringed waterfalls that seem to be somewhat common in the Southern California area. Another thing that makes this waterfall very nice is that the short 10-minute (0.6 miles round trip) walk goes through a very lush and peaceful canyon and makes for a very pleasant stroll. But since the falls is well signposted and the walk is short, this is also a very popular attraction. We just happened to show up after a clearing rain storm on a day when most people are at work and there were still a handful of people here. So I can imagine just how much busier it gets on the weekends.
