Bridal Veil Falls is a 607-foot-tall (185 m) double cataract waterfall in the south end of Provo Canyon, close to US189 in Utah, United States. An aerial tramway service to the top of the falls was built in 1961 and the small, six-passenger tramway functioned as a recreational attraction and as the only access to a restaurant built by Groneman Construction situated on a cliff at the top of the falls. In early 1996 an avalanche destroyed the building housing the tramway machinery and a gift shop and it was never rebuilt. In July 2008, an arson fire burned the building at the top of the tramway, and very little remains. In August 2008, the tram's cable was cut down. When the tramway was in operation prior to the 1996 avalanche, it was heralded as the "world's steepest aerial tramway," although that claim is difficult to ascertain. The falls were a featured point along the route of the Heber Creeper tourist train until the train discontinued its service past the falls. The train tracks in front of the falls were removed and converted into a recreational trail. Now the falls and a small park just west of the falls (Bridal Veil Park) can also be accessed via U.S. Highway 189.
