Dear Traveler,

The mountains, waterfalls, rivers, and trails are calling my name! I love finding fun new ways to get outside. Sometimes that means finding a new cascade in the forest, and other times that means finding a new outdoor dining experience. Eating delicious food with some fresh air definitely counts as an outdoor adventure. Take it from me—I’m an expert on this stuff. I can almost taste it now, can you?

Happy exploring,

Relaxing on an inner tube is an activity that almost everyone in your family can get behind. Go with the flow on a scenic river journey through Transylvania County on the French Broad or Davidson River.

There are 250 waterfalls in Transylvania County—how many have you seen? Knock a few off that adventure to-do list. Check out 10 classic cascades in our corner of the mountains to consider for your next excursion. Plus, don’t forget to visit our interactive waterfall map.

Every year, serious injuries and deaths occur around waterfalls. Admire the beauty. Be aware of the danger. We want you to have a fun and safe adventure in the Land of Waterfalls.
