West Tensleep Falls Is A 1.5-Mile Hike In Wyoming That Leads You To A Pristine Waterfall
One of the best things about living (or even just visiting!) Wyoming is the plentiful access to the great outdoors. Whether it’s spending an entire weekend hiking and camping or simply taking a walk in our own neighborhood, there’s no shortage of ways to appreciate the fresh air here. But, one of our favorite ways to experience the state is by heading out on this short trail to one seriously beautiful waterfall!

Located within Bighorn National Forest, West Tensleep Falls Trail is a beautiful route leading to a lovely waterfall.
As you near the falls you'll likely hear the rush of water before you even see it. And while this waterfall isn't as strong or mighty as others, it's got the same beauty.
West Tensleep Falls Trail can be accessed year-round, but we hear it’s best between May and September. You can learn more about it and see a full map by checking out alltrails.com. And those of you with pups will love that you can bring them along, just be sure to keep them on a leash.
Michelle has lived in many places, but counts Maine as one of the best. In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.
