Toquerville Falls
Directions

Located near La Verkin and Toquerville just outside Zion National Park, Toquerville Falls features a striking multi-tiered waterfall cascading over red rock ledges. The scenic oasis along La Verkin Creek offers visitors natural swimming holes and picturesque desert views. Accessing the falls requires navigating a notoriously rough unpaved track best suited for high-clearance four-wheel-drive vehicles or off-highway vehicles.

Quick tip: Use a high-clearance 4WD vehicle or OHV to navigate the extremely rough and rocky dirt road leading to the site.
