No matter if you're walking behind the falls or traversing to view it topside, Bridal Veil Falls is one our favorites. The super easy .4 mile jaunt is great for families. Be sure you don't miss the neighboring Cornelius Falls!
You'll come across Falls Creek Falls during your hike along the Falls Branch Trail at Lake Catherine State Park. The trail is a moderate 1.6 mile loop.
You don't even need to leave the car if it's too soggy to hike around Natural Dam. The falls are immediately visible from Natural Dam Road off of Hwy. 59. You can enjoy a scenic lunch right next to the falls at the Natural Forest picnic site, weather permitting.
Enjoy the falls either by taking the Cossatot River Falls State Park Natural Area Trail or take them head on by kayaking the river. The 1 mile trail may be the easier route if you're looking for a good photo opportunity of the falls.
About 8 miles east of Cass, in the Mulberry region, lies the Bingham Hollow Falls. We recommend finding the path to the falls by reading the Arkansas waterfall bible, Waterfalls of Arkansas by Tim Ernst.
This gorgeous waterfall is about 12 miles southeast of Cass. From the ATV trail on Barnes Road, it's an easy 1.5 mile round trip to the falls. The whole area is teeming with falls, just do your research before heading out.
You need to be a true Arkansas adventurer to reach the Sixty Foot Falls. But if you don't mind bushwhacking and elevation changes, then the falls are a wonderful reward. The Sixty Foot Falls Trail is about 10 miles northeast of Cass.
If you're less than enthused about waterfall hunting around Cass, take to the Kings River Falls Trail for an easy (but no less picturesque) hike. The 1.8 mile trail is great for all skill levels and four-legged best friends.
