Just a couple of hours north of Las Vegas lies an oasis called Cedar City. Home to Southern Utah University, and close to a number of scenic national parks, this charming and compact city offers visitors a great home base for exploring the area. Golf, skiing, biking and other outdoor recreational activities abound. In the summer, mountain bikers flock to the Brian Head Peak Activity Center, for challenging runs and spectacular scenery. Also called the "Festival City," Cedar City plays host to a number of prestigious film, theater and art festivals throughout the year (the summer Shakespearean Festival is one of the more well-known fetes), making anytime a great time to visit.

This is a short hike (about 0.8 miles one way) on a dirt path through the woods and along side sandstone rock. The first part of the hike is mostly level, then dropping down some to the falls. Do not go during snowmelt or after recent rain since the trail will be slippery in places, particularly in the steeper downhill section. The water that flows over the falls is supplied by Navajo Lake through an underground lava tube. The falls are not very tall, but are unique because it flows out of the rock cliff face. There is a platform with railings at the falls. The views are great and you can even see Zion National Park off in the distance. This hike is suitable for all ages. It is NOT wheelchair accessible. Directions: Google Maps for: Cascade Falls Trailhead, FR054, Duck Creek Village, UT 84762

Very interesting place to visit. Placards help navigating thru this historic town. We enjoyed to regents of the buildings as well as the explanations given in the placards. We also walked along the pathway to see the trails of different critters.
