    Tips

    Cedar Creek Falls is a beautiful cascade that drops 80 feet into a shimmering pool of water. It's best to visit the falls in the spring or fall, when there is a higher chance of water running.

    The falls are located in Cleveland National Forest and there is a permit required for the trail leading up to them, so be sure to plan your hike accordingly!

      Hiked Cedar Creek Falls 06/08 …heats up in June. Take plenty of water, 34 oz was not enough. The ground temp was 124 degrees. Permits needed and hikers are checked in and checked out. Beautiful views of the Falls make it worth it!
