Set on Crystal Creek in Nelson & Kennedy Ledges State Park, Cascade Falls is a delicate waterfall that cascades down the face of one of the Nelson Ledges, which makes for an interesting visit.

While the waterfall tends to dry up in the hot summer months, the ledges themselves are worth a visit, with scenic sandstone formations and can be reached by several accessible hiking trails.

Cascade Falls can be reached from Route 282, and there is a parking lot and picnic area on one side of the road, from which several hiking trails lead through narrow crevices in the rocks to the falls.

Nelson & Kennedy Ledges State Park is situated next to the watershed divide between the Ohio River and Lake Erie.
