Falling Water Falls
About
Falling Water Falls is a waterfall in Tennessee, set within the Falling Water Falls Designated State Natural Area about 1.4 miles from the community of Falling Water. The falls sit at roughly 1,412 feet. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show October highs around 70°F with lows near 47°F, and April is similar at about 71°F by day and 47°F at night. That station sits a few hundred feet higher than the falls, so temperatures at the falls may run slightly warmer.

Farther afield, the Northwoods Trail lies about 2.8 miles away, and the Leda climbing area is about 4.5 miles away.
