NORTH AMERICA'S BEST WATERFALL DESTINATIONS

East

Fall Creek Falls - Tennessee, USA - At 256', Fall Creek Falls is the the tallest single drop in the southeast U.S.  It offers amazing views of the falls and the surrounding gorge.  It is very similar to Taughannock Falls in the northeast.  In addition, the state park also contains Cane Creek Falls and Piney Creek Falls, which are spectacular waterfalls in their own right.

Finger Lakes Region - New York, USA - The last ice age carved the terrain of central New York, and also provided plenty of water in the region, leading to great waterfalls.  The highlight of the region is Taughannock Falls in Ulysses, which is the tallest single drop in the Northeastern U.S. at 215'.  In addition, there are many state parks filled with waterfalls in the region.  Some big waterfalls of note include: Lucifer Falls, Ithaca Falls, Watkins Glen, She-Qua-Ga Falls, and many more.  In addition to falls, this region is known for its rich culture, and summer festivals that include wine and cheese tasting.

     High Falls - Chateaugay, NY (USA) - A beautiful waterfall and adjacent campground in upstate NY.

Niagara Falls - USA & Canada - Easily one of the top waterfalls in the world, this is definitely the most visited waterfall in North America, and for good reason.  The falls are near the major cities of Buffalo, NY and Toronto, Ontario.  The Canadian horseshoe falls is over 2000' wide and 175' tall, featuring the most falling water in North America.  If that wasn't enough, the American falls are over 1000' wide and about 100' tall.  Niagara is the most accessible major waterfall in the world, which has its advantages and disadvantages.  The American side features the cave of the winds boardwalks all around the base of the falls.  The Maid of the Mist ferry takes you to the base of bother waterfalls, which is breathtaking and gets you soaked.  The Canadian side also features the behind the falls tour, which also takes you to the observation deck at the base of the Horseshoe falls.  On average, 20 million tourists visit each year.

Transylvania County - North Carolina, USA - This area is called the "Land of Waterfalls", and for good reason, it has a larger density of great falls than any other area.  Stay tuned for more on this area.

More coming soon, including Hawaii, Yosemite National Park, & the Pacific Northwest.
