A small (about 6 feet) wooded waterfall on Stone Creek in Platte River State Park, roughly 30 minutes from Omaha. The flat, wide Stone Creek Falls Trail is about a half-mile round-trip with minimal elevation gain.

At 6 ft, it stands above roughly 1% of the 775 documented falls in this guide.

Stone Creek Falls sits on Stone Creek. You'll find it in Cass, Nebraska. It is protected within Platte River State Park (Nebraska Game & Parks).

This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. A short walk gets you to the viewpoint, so it works for most casual visitors and families. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 0.5 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Louisville, the closest town.

When to go: Spring. Like most waterfalls, Stone Creek 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.
