No matter the time of year, there are two things in South Dakota that you can never go wrong with, which are hiking and waterfalls (yes, even when they are frozen). Have you ever thought of combining the two and creating something even more magical? Then why not take the family on this easy waterfall hike right here in South Dakota:

Tucked away within the breathtaking Spearfish Canyon is the equally dazzling Bridal Veil Falls.

While every state seems to have their own Bridal Veil Falls (the name is common because of its veil-like shape... get it?), we happen to believe that ours is the most stunning, thanks to its surrounding foliage...

...and rocky, yet practically perfect backdrop.

As if you really needed another reason to love Bridal Veil Falls, the waters can be seen a number of different ways, including driving by in your car or getting out to walk around and explore.

If you are feeling extra adventurous, you can even get up pretty dang close to these cool and clear waters!

Bridal Veil Falls can be found just 6 miles from Spearfish off the Spearfish Canyon Highway (Highway 14A).
