This beautiful waterfall is on the grounds of the Myriad Botanical Garden, on the northeast side of the Crystal Bridge. The waterfall is about 70 feet long, 12 feet tall, and 6 feet wide. It is bisected by a wooden walkway that winds around the lake and grounds. A wooden walkway is at the bottom of the waterfall also, where it meets the lake. Guard rails are placed on both sides of the middle walkway for safety reasons.
A very small stream leads from the upper grounds, winding from the fountain area around the gardens, into the waterfall, and ends in the Myriad Gardens lake. When renovation on the gardens is complete, a fountain will be in the center of the lake. The grounds have beautiful landscaping, a Children's Garden, two large fountains, sculptures, live stage theater, and lots of benches for visitors to sit and enjoy their surroundings.
There is no charge to walk around the grounds of the botanical garden. There is a fee to enter the Crystal Bridge Tropical Conservatory.
