A small seasonal waterfall along the spring-fed reaches of the Bog Springs Trail in Madera Canyon Recreation Area in the Santa Rita Mountains south of Tucson. It flows best during spring runoff and the summer monsoon.
The falls are fed by Madera Canyon drainage. It lies in Pima, Arizona. The site is on public land managed by Coronado National Forest.
This is a moderate hike waterfall: a longer day hike, roughly one to several miles each way. Reaching it takes a moderate walk, so budget time and pack water before you set out. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 2.8 miles round trip. The nearest town is Green Valley.
When to go: summer. Flow usually peaks after snowmelt and heavy rain and tapers through late summer — a quick look at recent streamflow and the managing agency's conditions page can save a wasted trip.
