South Carolina Waterfalls

The mystical natural waterfalls of South Carolina's Upcountry shimmer down smooth granite walls, flow over rugged rock ledges and drop hundreds of feet from scenic mountain cliffs. South Carolina's amazing collection of magical falls includes the highest falls in Eastern America.

Flowing waterfalls can be viewed roadside, on easy walks down forested paths and through moderate to difficult mountain hikes in three Upcountry counties of the Palmetto state. Click on a fall name below for falls descriptions, locations, and hiking requirements.
