Land of Waterfalls
Transylvania County has more waterfalls than any other North Carolina county. We hope you enjoy them.
     
Many are either on private property or nearly inaccessible, please be aware before you go looking for them. Get advice, directions, and, if necessary, permissions. Always use caution around waterfalls.
Many people are killed or injured around waterfalls each year.
