A waterfall that pours straight out of a cliff face on the edge of the Markagunt Plateau — the outlet of an underground lava-tube system that drains Navajo Lake into the Virgin River watershed. An easy 1.2-mile round-trip trail with boardwalk sections leads to the falls, with huge views over Zion's backcountry along the way.
