Tropic Ditch Falls is a roughly 20-foot waterfall at the end of the Mossy Cave Trail in the northern section of Bryce Canyon National Park near Tropic. The water flows seasonally through a pioneer-dug irrigation ditch, and the easy 0.9-mile out-and-back gains about 118 feet.
At 20 ft, it stands above roughly 12% of the 775 documented falls in this guide.
Its water comes from Tropic Ditch (Water Canyon). You'll find it in Garfield, Utah. It is protected within Bryce Canyon National Park (NPS).
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 0.9 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Tropic, the closest town.
When to go: Spring to fall (Apr-Oct). Expect the strongest flow in spring and after big storms, with a quieter trickle by late summer; confirm current conditions with the land manager before committing to the drive.
