Cataract Falls is the largest and most intricate waterfall along the circuit, cascading in several tiers down Cataract Creek. A network of trails provides access to various viewpoints, including a lower plunge pool and a mid-level platform where the water flows over beautiful orange-stained rock slabs. The multiple layers and changing perspectives make this stop particularly captivating, as the water splits and reunites as it descends.
