Located in the heart of Big Sky, the Ousel Falls Park Trail is a short stroll to a cascading waterfall, popular with locals and visitors alike. The smooth, broad path descends gently to the falls, and multiple viewpoints from below and above let you take in the cascades from multiple angles. The trail is popular year round, but in the winter the cascade freezes into icy pillars, turning the narrow canyon into a winter wonderland. And don’t forget to keep an eye out for the Falls’ namesake bird, the small and gray Water Ousel.
