Part of the Upper Buffalo Wilderness in the Ozark National Forest, the little-known Magnolia Falls is a 26-foot tall waterfall that cascades into a little pool of water below. The area around Magnolia Falls is beautifully scenic with high bluffs and large rocks, and the falls are at their best during the spring and winter after substantial rainfall. During the winter, the waterfall ices over, creating spectacular icicle formations. Magnolia Falls is easily accessible by a trailhead, which has easy vehicle access to the trail and a well-defined path that is relatively easy to follow to the waterfalls.
