Little Falls

Little Falls is a seasonal waterfall of about 30 feet in a small side canyon of Kyle Canyon, Spring Mountains National Recreation Area, near the Mount Charleston village. World of Waterfalls describes this route, and the route description dates from 2017. From the small Echo Trailhead parking area, follow the sign right and briefly up the dry wash. About a minute later, watch for an easy-to-miss trail sign on the opposite side of the wash pointing uphill to the left, and take that trail. The Echo Trail climbs, then levels for about 0.6 miles; ignore false trails, including a wide path climbing steeply past an Echo Trail sign. At an unsigned junction, the Echo Trail goes left toward the Cathedral Rock Trailhead; turn right and climb about 0.3 miles until the trail runs in the creek bed in front of the falls. Several Kyle Canyon trails were closed after 2023 storm damage. In 2024 the Review-Journal reported that the Little Falls trail was open and reached from the Cathedral Rock parking lot.
