Roughlock Falls
13.8 Miles South of the North Entrance to Spearfish Canyon
Take a break from your day to experience Roughlock Falls, a breathtaking multi-tiered waterfall along Little Spearfish Creek. Pioneers traveling down the canyon used to lower their wagons down the drop by roughlocking the wheels to prevent them from rolling freely - hence the name of the falls. Parking and facilities are available as well as many mantained walking paths. Directions: At Savoy, turn on to Forest Service Road 222 and travel approximately 1 mile.
Bridal Veil Falls
Spearfish Falls
Cascading approximately 60 feet, Bridal Veil Falls is the most accessible waterfall in the Canyon. The falls flows intensly in the spring and slows considerably in late summer and fall. It is located adjacent to a large parking lot to accommodate sightseers. An observation platform was installed by the Forest Service to prevent erosion to the area.
Spearfish Falls is slightly off the beaten path, but well worth the walk. It is located at the base of the Canyon at Savoy. There is a trail that will guide you to the bottom of the canyon and take you beneath a canopy of trees as you approach the roaring waters of Spearfish Falls. Be sure to wear good shoes as the trail can be slippery at times.
