    Tips

    Hiking

    The Riparian Area is situated in the northern part of Rifle Falls State Park. Even though the waterfalls can not compete with the Rifle Falls in the south of the park concerning its size, this part is no less beautiful. Spend some time watching the beautiful cascades and waterways flowing by.
