Fallingwater Cascades - Blue Ridge Pkwy - Waterfalls on Waymarking.com

Fallingwater Cascades (yes, it does) is a cascading waterfall accessed from the Blue Ridge Parkway via an approximately 1 1/2 mile loop trail that will take an least an hour to complete. Parking is available at BRP Milepost 83.1 (Fallingwater Cascades Overlook). Elevation gain for the entire loop trail is approximately 385 ft. Several benches are provided for those needing to rest their feet.

The trail descends from the parking to a point near the top of the falls before crossing to the west bank via a footbridge. It descends the mountain alongside the falls then recrosses the creek via another footbridge to return to the parking area.

I have not been able to find the total height of the falls; the number given on the waymark page is an estimate.
