Cascade Falls is a cascade waterfall in Maryland.
Its water comes from tributary of the Patapsco River. You'll find it in Howard, Maryland. It is protected within Maryland Department of Natural Resources (Patapsco Valley State Park).
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 2.1 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Elkridge, the closest town.
When to go: spring. Like most waterfalls, Cascade Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
