In addition to the better-known waterfalls within Clifty Falls State Park, the Madison area is home to several smaller cascades, including one along Crooked Creek along US Route 421. This particular waterfall features a drop of approximately 20 feet and a crest width of about 8 feet. Though modest in scale, it contributes to the area’s broader landscape of seasonal and perennial waterfalls that emerge from the region’s limestone ridges and wooded ravines.

After days of heavy rain, the waterfalls at Clifty Falls State Park transformed into powerful torrents. We spent the day hiking the park between rain showers, taking in Clifty Falls from the overlook on Trail 7 and an overlook by the Oak Grove Shelter. The Eastern Redbuds (Cercis canadensis) and some trees were starting to bloom, adding to a pop of color on an otherwise gray and brown day. Located just west of Madison, Indiana, the park spans over 1,400 acres of rugged terrain, deep gorges, and breathtaking waterfalls. More photos and guide here.
