Jemez Falls is a waterfall located in the Jemez Mountains of the Santa Fe National Forest. The falls are located on the East Fork of the Jemez River in an area dominated by Ponderosa Pine forests. Jemez Falls are the highest waterfalls in the Jemez Mountains. There are some smaller falls on the river just above the main falls. The falls are accessible from a trail that starts at the Jemez Falls campground and day use area. There is an overlook at the end of the trail. The Jemez Falls Campground is located at an elevation of 7,880 feet above sea level. Campers should come prepared for warm days and cooler nights.{{Cite web |title=Jemez Falls Campground, New Mexico - Camping Reservations & Campgrounds {{!}} ReserveAmerica |url=https://www.reserveamerica.com/explore/jemez-falls-campground/FLST/753496/overview |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=www.reserveamerica.com}} The East Fork of the Jemez River is in close proximity to the campground.
