I read the reviews, and decided to give it a try. I am 60 with moderate degenerative disk decease and was able to make the trip. The root are tiny and easily avoidable. There was one tree across the trail, maybe 16" high, again easily stepped over. The Water Fall is spectacular. It has rained here the last couple days, so it may have been bigger than usual but so beautiful. I will be coming back again to see it in the spring and the fall. My 17 yr old son decided to cross the rocks and get closer look. Fell in, water is quite cold he reports LOL. There is a nice spot for frolicking in the warmer weather shortly before the fall. I am taking my wife and 3 daughters back today. ENJOY

A short walk up a paved path brings you to A stunning waterfall. There is an optional stairway that takes you down to the bottom for a whole different perspective.

A favorite spot for hikers and picnickers, this scenic area features the Whitewater River dropping more than 400 feet in a series of cascading falls.

Simply amazing. The best $3 I have paid in quite awhile. This may be the best combination of an easy walk; on a paved walk way to a fabulous waterfall in the world. Just awesome. At the end of the walkway, take the 150 steps down to an even better view.

The last time I was able to swim in an ice cold waterfall swimming hole my was in Hawaii! Didn’t know I could do it right here in NC. Absolutely beautiful and amazing experience. Water is ICE COLD ... woulda been even better had it been super hot out! So exhilarating.. and super easy walk to it! Parking can b dangerous cuz it’s basically on the side of a highway.
