Description
Dry Falls is a spectacular waterfall located in the Nantahala National Forest in western North Carolina. The falls are situated near the town of Highlands and is a popular destination for tourists and outdoor enthusiasts.
What makes Dry Falls unique is that visitors can walk behind the waterfall, as there is a trail that passes behind the cascading water. The waterfall drops 75 feet into a pool below, creating a misty and thundering display of natural beauty. The nearby area is also scenic, with lush green forests and the Cullasaja River winding through the valley. Visitors can enjoy hiking, fishing, picnicking, and camping in the surrounding area.
This is a must-see attraction for anyone visiting western North Carolina, offering a thrilling and unforgettable experience in the midst of stunning natural beauty. I have to smile when I think of the name “Dry Falls”. It’s actually named as such because you can typically walk behind the falls and stay dry... That is, unless there ‘s been recent heavy rains and then you “might” come out soaked like I did. Smiles.
Thank you for viewing my gallery. I hope you will find my artwork worthy of hanging in your home or office, and trust you will enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed presenting it to you.
