Cedar Falls
The best-known natural waterfall in the state, Cedar Falls is the focal point of Petit Jean State Park atop Petit Jean Mountain near Morrilton. This 95-foot gusher spills into Cedar Creek and can be accessed via the Cedar Falls Trail, which winds through Cedar Creek Canyon to the "splash down." The trip is 2-1/4 miles round trip and is classified as moderate-to-strenuous. The park is located on Ark. 154 southwest of Morrilton.
Cossatot River State Park Natural Area - Cossatot Falls is a series of smaller water falls on the rugged, upturned rocks of the Cossatot River. The park extends from the Ouachita National Forest near the Ark. 246 bridge on the north to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property on Gillham Lake, south of Ark. 4. The falls can be reached via Weyerhaeuser Road 52200 which runs between Ark. 4 and Ark. 246 on the east side of the river. From Road 52200, turn west on 52600, which leads to Cossatot Falls. During peak flow time, these falls are floatable, but only by the most experienced canoeists or kayakers. The trip to reach these impressive falls is considered to be moderate to strenuous.
