Visitor Center

Cascade Springs Interpretive Trail is a 0.7 mile heavily trafficked loop trail located near Midway, UT that features a waterfall (fed by springs, so consistent water levels throughout the year) and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, and nature trips and is accessible from May until October.

To get there, drive up AF canyon and follow the signs to Cascade Springs. It takes 55 minutes from our house to get there.

The trail is entirely paved. If you follow the loop in a clockwise direction, there is a point just past halfway where you will see a trail leading up and away from the water. This is not part of the main loop; it goes to the upper parking lot.  There is also a loop at the very end to the main parking area that you don't need to go on. There is nothing to see there. Just go back the way you came.

*We hiked this on 6/7/16
