Cascade falls
Eight miles south of Hot Springs , artesian springs fill Cascade Creek with constantly warm and clear water at Cascade Falls . The clean , clear water of the falls originates about two miles upstream at Cascade Springs , where a series of six artesian springs feed warm , 67- degree water into Cascade Creek .
There is a small parking lot , restrooms and a picnic area . A trail and stairway connect the parking lot to the falls . The area is ideal for swimming or picnicking , but watch for poison ivy on the banks of the creek .
Fall river
This year-round warm river runs through Hot Springs ’ main street . The Freedom Trail , a walking trail , follows its route through town and a waterfall cascades from the red rock cliffs that line River Street . A gazebo covers a fountain offering the mineral-rich water at Kidney Springs .
