Bonnie Falls is a quick roadside stop – no adventure here. The Crown Z Trail is nearby, but it does not traverse this exact area, even though there is a Bonnie Falls Trailhead. You could certainly view the waterfall while hiking the trail; you would just need to depart from the trail for a while in order to do so.
