About this spot

Head north on the 57 freeway after merging from the 5, passing the 60 interchange and continuing to the Via Verde exit (near Raging Waters). Turn right onto Via Verde, then quickly right again onto San Dimas Drive. Travel approximately 2 miles and turn right onto Puddingstone, followed by an immediate left onto Tanglewood. For navigation purposes, reference 100 Tanglewood Drive, San Dimas CA 91773. Park along Tanglewood near the apartments. To reach the site, walk back down Tanglewood, turn right on Puddingstone, and left on San Dimas for roughly a quarter mile until you spot a trail on the right side. The path passes several large pipes from the former Raging Waters water system (now covered in graffiti) that you'll walk across. Continue following the trail and creek upstream until reaching the waterfall area. The location offers multiple jump options ranging from approximately 20 feet to 60 feet in height. A rope ladder aids climbers returning to the top, and an alternate route around the back of the cliff allows access without climbing the rock face.

Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
