experience some waterfall magic!

Waterfalls are magical places, places of solitude, of serenity, of subtle power. Surrounding these swirling drops are lush oaks in the summer, resplendent colors in the fall, icy columns in the winter, and wildflowers in the spring. With new falls and maps, and a new cover and text design, this latest edition of Waterfalls of the Blue Ridge shows you where to find these enchanting jewels. While not an exhaustive accounting of all the waterfalls found in Virginia and North Carolina, Waterfalls of the Blue Ridge contains the significant falls open to the general public.

Each chapter is organized around a "destination" city, which includes a brief history of the area and a listing of nearby attractions. Descriptions of waterfalls within an easy hour's drive of each central town or city are then given, including driving directions and concise trail notes. From the Smoky Mountains to the Shenandoah National Park, follow the authors as they guide readers to over 100 of the best waterfalls in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
