Guess what, South Dakota? Temperatures are continuing to climb, which means we can now look toward to the future and determine just what it is we want to do in these warmer months, like hiking to this secluded South Dakota waterfall beach that is positively amazing:
Welcome to Cascade Falls, AKA the Old Swimming Hole!
What you may not realize is that in addition to the falls and "Old Swimming Hole," there is a short and sweet trail that connects the parking lot with the water and nearby picnic/rest area, which is the perfect way to begin your outdoor adventure!
Please note: There is poison ivy along the banks of Cascade Falls and rattlesnakes along the trail (though rare, as the area is heavily trafficked), so exercise caution when visiting the area.
