Glen Helen: Directions and Parking

The Cascades are a series of small drops on Birch Creek in Glen Helen Nature Preserve in Yellow Springs. Glen Helen says its Cascades Lot at 1075 OH-343 gives ADA trail access to the Birch Creek Cascades and the Yellow Spring. Waterfall Record describes the route from the Corry Street lot: downhill to Birch Creek, then left uphill until you reach the falls. It notes the trail system can be confusing and some paths lead to private property.
