Tanque Verde Falls is a beautiful waterfall with an 80-foot plunge in Tucson, Arizona. Visitors can get there with a short hike on the Lower Tanque Verde Falls Trailhead. During the hike you’ll come across many other smaller waterfalls and swimming holes, which are great to stop and relax in while there. Once you get to the creek, there’s no real trail and you’ll just have to follow the creek bed to get to the falls. Though swimming is allowed, be careful, as the granite in the area can get very slippery. Don’t forget to bring your camera along because you’ll want to capture the beauty of this hidden waterfall.
