Timpanogos Falls in 360 Degrees
Mount Timpanogos
Today my Nature Fix for you is the 2 main seasonal Timpanogos Falls. They are located above Aspen Grove on the trail up to the top of Timp in Utah. They are beautiful, but this year was unique in that the Natural disaster of some major Avalanches has made sections of this trail a mess, and the bottom of both of the Waterfalls still goes under sections of the avalanche remains. It reminded me that life is fragile. "If you are prepared, ye shall have no need to fear." is what we have been promised. It prompted me to have a good heart to heart with my hubby listing the different possible disasters and what do we still need to be able to handle it. It was super beneficial time.![]() |
Avalanche Route Destruction with 2 Waterfalls in View above. |
- About 1.5 hours from SLC
- Around 4 miles round trip to falls
- Around 550 elevation gain.
- It would be an Easy Hike, EXCEPT that the Avalanche has made sections of the trail a mess and you have to detour and climb over logs that are not normally part of the trail. It is probably already cleaned up, but it was a big project so I am not sure.
- Quite a few wildflowers on the trail, and if you make it passed the Waterfalls, there is a field of wildflowers passed this a few miles that is AMAZING!
- This was done in early July. I took spikes and sticks and was glad I did. It made it easy to climb over the slippery snow.

I only saw this one, but it was a treasure to find this white Sweet Violet on the side of the trail! |

GETTING TO TIMPANOGOS FALLS
To get to Timpanogos falls you go up Provo canyon and turn towards Sundance ski resort. You drive past that and past Aspen Grove to the Pay station for the National Park. (If you have a National Park pass make sure you bring that along.) Just past that pay station is the big parking lot for both the Stewart Falls, and to Top of Timpanogos Hike. The Timpanogos Falls is on the right trail to the Top of Timp. It is only about 1.9 miles up to the Waterfalls. I do not know how long into the summer these run, for it looks like on Google Earth that they dry out. This was taken the first of July and there was still snow and they were running full, but that was in 2019 and we had a crazy amount of snow and a late spring.![]() |

It is a little tricky to tell these apart. Can you see the difference. The above one has a wall on the opposite side of the waterfall, that actually had a dripping waterfall coming down it. Also even though they both have cliffs on the side closer to me, they are different.

And if you are in this area in Early Spring, then
GRAND FALLS might definitely need to be added to your list.

As a last Suggestion, if you are heading North you also might want to add "House On Fire" via Mule Canyon on you list. It was a fun hike where you got to constantly enjoy the stream, and the Native American Ruins were wonderful.
If you have enjoyed these posts, please consider my sponsor ads. One of my favorite hiking things I have are my HOKA ONE ONE Pink and purple hiking boots. I get complements on them all the time, but the real reason I love them is because they have incredible grip, they really support my ankle, and they are like walking on clouds that my feet are able to do longer distances without the pain of a normal hiking boot. They offer a 3 week trial period that you can try them out and see if they are something you like.
Also if you have not tried these Coconut Chocolate Chip Energy Bars, you really should try them out. They are really tasty. My husband who is not always a clif bar fan really enjoys them. They are definitely my favorite flavor!
