Red Granite Falls is located in Wisconsin's Copper Falls State Park. This is better described as a set of rapids instead of a waterfall. Here the Bad River tumbles over and through a large number of rocks.
The area is a mile or so upstream of the much more scenic Copper Falls and Brownstone Falls. The one big advantage Red Granite Falls has over the others is that there are no fences here, and you can easily get out on the rocks amidst the rapids.
After you enter the park, take the first left on the road to Loon Lake. The trail to the fall is a 2.5 mile round trip through woods. There are a few ups and downs, but it is mostly level. The area is clearly marked on the park map.
