About this swimming hole
Lundy Canyon's Mill Creek tumbles through beaver ponds and aspen groves beneath the 20-foot Lundy Falls, with small swimmable pools along the trail. Fall brings legendary aspen color, but summer is for wading the clear creek pools. The canyon feels wilder and quieter than the nearby June Lake Loop.
