When we're children we seek wonderful, out of the way, secret and mysterious places to play, we traverse paths and follow creeks hoping to come upon a place that roars with the sound of cascading water, where maybe a fairy will come from behind a wildflower petal and ask us if there is a wish that we have that maybe she can grant. It is never too late to delight in such fancy and it is one of the reasons that the waterfalls of this region are one of our most desirable attractions. Only a few of our waterfalls are visible from the road or parking lots. Most waterfalls are easily reached, requiring varying lengths of walks and hikes.
