Seven Catarcts

Drive up the Catalina Highway (Mount Lemmon Scenic Byway). Past Thimble Peak Vista, Seven Cataracts Vista is 0.6 mile farther on the left, at about milepost 9.2. The vista overlooks a series of cascades across Bear Canyon. There is no maintained trail down to the falls.

No walking distance applies. The source places the vista 0.6 mile beyond Thimble Peak Vista by road.

Roadside pullout. The direct descent into the canyon is off-trail and extremely steep, and a regional guide warns against it.

Where to start

Roadside vista pullout on the left side when driving uphill. Number of spaces is not stated.

Timing & water

Water only after heavy rain or snowmelt; often dry.

Before you go

One regional directory says no fee. Whether a Coronado National Forest recreation pass is required at this pullout is not established.
