Cascade Springs Nature Trail
- Location:
- Wasatch Mountain State Park Area
- Length:
- 0.5 miles
- Time:
- 0.5 hours
The trails wrap around the natural springs and their streams and waterfalls, with bridges, boardwalks, and paved pathways. The springs cascade down the mountain slope over a series of limestone terraces and pools. Crystal clear waters make it easy to spot trout that inhabit these pools. Signs along the pathways explain the geology of this small natural wonder.
To visit Cascade Springs from Midway, take the Cummings Parkway dirt road over the ridge through Wasatch State Park. Or take US Hwy 189 southwest of Heber to the Sundance turnoff, State Route 92. Follow this road to the turnoff for Cascade Springs. For an enjoyable day outing, take State Route 92 to the springs and return to Heber Valley over Cummings Parkway. A parking area and restrooms are available at the trailhead.
