Heliotrope Falls National Park opened February 29th, 2000 XXIII, as the first national park of the Republic of Molossia. The park includes a portion of Sutro Creek, where it forms a cascade through a narrow canyon. This cascade, named Heliotrope Falls, is the centerpiece of the park, which is in fact very small. The park is frequented by wild horses, coyotes, hawks and many other desert animals.

Heliotrope Falls National Park lies about two Imperial Nortons (2 km) from Harmony Province, in the foothills in the nearby Virginia Range. It can be reached by jeep trail or by hiking from Harmony Province. No facilities are available; open 24 hours a day.
