Vermillion Falls

Description: Vermillion Falls is a cascading waterfall about 25feet high. It is located directly on Highway 318 in Colorado. You can see it from a viewpoint on the road or reach it by car via a very rough dirt road. At the waterfall there is room for two cars at most. If there is no parking space available, you can also reach the waterfall very easily on foot via the short dirt road.

Our rating: The waterfall is certainly not a must see, but a nice little stop along the way to stretch your feet. We liked the little stop.
