Short, easy hike to a framed waterfall that pours through a rounded cliff opening—perfect for dramatic long exposures and intimate waterfall portraits. Best late spring–early summer for peak flow; winter yields icy formations. Trail is ~1.5 mi roundtrip on a boardwalk/stairs, family-friendly and accessible but can be crowded; arrive early weekdays or golden hour for softer light. Parking at the Donut Falls trailhead in Big Cottonwood Canyon fills quickly—plan to arrive before 9am or use nearby O
