Fifth Water Waterfalls

View more photos

Fifth Water is a tributary to Diamond Fork River, east of Spanish Fork. It offers a series of beautiful waterfalls and some very nice hot pot naturally warm mineral water pools. The waterfall featured here is the second when hiking in from the bottom, from the Three-Forks Trailhead. There are impressive waterfalls above and below this one, plus a couple cascades some writers have labeled waterfalls.

A word of caution: The hot pots here are very nice. Sadly, they attract a good number of people who enjoy soaking in the nude. The hot pots are located just below and above the lower waterfall - the falling water all but lands in one big pool. The trail winds past this area and continues up the canyon to the second waterfall. If you hike it be prepared to see totally nude people soaking in the water, relaxing on rocks and hiking the trail.
