Palisade Falls Trail
Palisade Falls is located south of Bozeman in the Hyalite Recreation Area, just beyond the reservoir. The trail begins at the East Fork of Hyalite Creek, then follows a tributary for approximately half a mile to a bridge fronting the falls. Palisade Falls is a towering cataract dropping more than 80 feet off a vertical rock wall at the southern base of Palisade Mountain. The trail is wheelchair- and stroller-accessible, mostly paved, and features picnic tables at the trailhead.
This is a great, easy trail during the heat of summer, when the falls and dense forest keep hikers, bikers, and runners cool. The trail can get slick during winter, but good traction or a pair of cross-country skis make for an easy winter outing.
