North Carolina Waterfalls Map

The state of NC is home to over 50 waterfalls all throughout the state. Many can be found on hiking trails and are usually just an added bonus when enjoying the beautiful wilderness. Below we will break down each waterfall you can visit through the interactive map. Of course we highly recommend using your phone or an actual map when making the drive, but the pins will give you a rough idea of where you will be going and how far away each one is. Find one close to where you plan on staying and be sure to add it to your bucket list of places to visit. A few hours in the great outdoors with the serenity and peacefulness of a waterfall is a great way to rejuvenate your body and soul and remember what makes mother nature so great.

As you can see in the map most of the waterfalls are located on the western part of North Carolina. There are a couple located in parts of central and eastern NC, but Ashville is by far the best city to stay in to take advantage of visiting as many falls as possible. Luckily the majority of the waterfalls only require a short hike of under a mile once you have parked so if you do live a couple hours away, you can still plan a day trip and not have to worry about running out of time.
