Toquerville Falls
This easy SUV trail goes to an awesome set of waterfalls on La Verkin Creek. In the winter the falls vary in depth, but you can usually pull out and get a snapshot of your vehicle fording the creek above the falls. There are a few bonus stops along the way back. One stop is to the Toquerville Towers, perched on a steep mountaintop above I-15 and the small town of Toquerville. The next stop will be at the Babylon Mill. This is an abandoned mill located on the banks of the Virgin River just north of La Virken. The last stops are at historic silver mines and graveyard in the Silver Reef area.
