About 60-foot waterfall right beside US 276 in Pisgah National Forest, with a roadside deck and steps to the creek.

What do I need to do? Check in

One of the most photographed falls in the region, visible from the road with an accessible top viewing deck and steps down to the creek. The Forest Service has no lifeguard here and the rocks are slippery, so stay out of the water above the falls. The Pisgah Ranger District alerts list no closure for it, and Explore Asheville and NC Tripping (updated October 26, 2026) both list it as visitable.
