Madison Falls Trail

 

Madison Falls Trail wanders through meadows and forests, then follows Madison Creek through a cleft in the mountainside to splendid falls that cascade a hundred feet down basalt cliffs. The trail wanders through a century of pioneer history, commencing near Smith's timber claim and Sweet's Cedarvale Resort, ending at Matteson's mining claim by the falls, 0.1 mile one way on paved trail.

Parking is to the left of the Ranger kiosk as you enter the park.
