Stewart Falls
Stewart Falls is a two-tiered waterfall over 200 feet tall on the eastern flank of Mount Timpanogos, reached from the Aspen Grove area along the Alpine Loop. The trail winds through aspen and fir forest in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest.
Before you go
Waterfalls are hazardous by nature — wet rock, cold water, and unstable edges — and flow varies enormously with season and recent rain. Trail figures here describe the route as documented, not conditions today. Check Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest (USFS) for closures and current conditions, and confirm land status before setting out.
Frequently Asked Questions
Stewart Falls drops about 200 feet. That makes it the 82nd-tallest documented waterfall in this inventory, taller than roughly 89% of the falls listed here. Height comes from published land-manager and survey records, not from our own measurement.
The Stewart Falls Trail (Stewart Cascade Trail #056) reaches it about 3.5 miles (out-and-back) with roughly 700 feet of elevation gain, rated moderate. The nearest town is Provo. That describes the route as documented, not conditions on the day — check with Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest (USFS) for closures and current conditions.
Late spring to fall (May-October). Waterfall flow swings enormously with snowmelt and recent rain, so a fall that roars in spring can be a trickle by late summer.
