Hayes Creek Falls, also listed as Hays Creek Falls, is a series of waterfalls along Hayes Creek that flow into the Crystal River. This is a short dirt path off of Highway 133 near Redstone, CO.

The waterfalls are right off Highway 133 and a short walk from the road. There is a sign for “Hays Creek Falls” that faces southbound traffic heading toward Marble on the right.

In early summer, the cascades of the waterfall gush with water. In the winter, Hayes Creek Falls is a popular ice-climbing destination as the waterfall turns into a giant layered sculpture of ice. There are no developed trails at Hays Creek Falls, except for the short entrance trail. I noticed a few trails on the south side of the falls, and one may lead to the area above the falls, which looks to have a series of cascades.
