Five Amazing Waterfalls in Colorado

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with House to Home, Inc. - Denver Real Estate - 720-231-6373 DRE# ER40011786

Colorado doesn't have a lot of water, but you will find five waterfalls that should be on your MUST SEE list.

 

1.  Bridal Veil Falls

Located near Telluride in the SW section of Colorado, you will find a 365-ft.-high waterfall plunging over dramatic cliffs forming the head of Telluride's box canyon.

2.  North Clear Creek Falls

Located several miles East of Telluride, you will find these falls.  There are North and South falls - be sure not to miss them.

3.  Fish Creek Falls

Located east of Steamboat Springs, you will find Fish Creek, Middle, and Upper Fish Creek Falls.    You will find one with a 280-foot waterfall with lots of trails.

 

4.  Box Canyon Falls Park

Located near Ouray, you will want to spend some time here!   It is a beautiful part of our State.   There is an 85-foot cascade of water plus picnic spots and a visitor center along with many trails.

5.  Rifle Falls

Located outside of Rifle off I-70, you will find large waterfalls, limestone caves, and diverse wildlife, plus camping and hiking trails.

I know I have a few to visit and now have this on my list!

Mary Margaret would love this post.  I think it is her life's passion to see every waterfall she can.  She has been known to drive miles out of her way on our trips just to see a waterfall.

Good morning Joan - I never thought of Colorado of not having much water like I would of Arizona, for example.

Learning about the areas in other states is one of the benefits of this engaging forum. Thank you for sharing your knowledge about water falls in your state.

Leanne Smith that is so true.   When Sheri Sperry blogs and shows all those gorgeous photos, I had to jump in the car and visit.  IT WAS BEAUTIFUL, and want to go again.
