On October 20th 2020 we took a road trip to Highlands to view several roadside or nearby waterfalls. We drove toward Franklin on US Highway 64 which is a curvy mountain road.

There is a very small parking area on the side of the road. It is more of a lookout stop. I missed it then had to turn around. Then there was no room so I drove back and forth a few times before someone pulled out. It is a bit dangerous to walk along the tight road while cars are going by and blowing their horns at you. The waterfall can be seen at a distance unless one chooses to hike down a steep trail that I did not dare try. My son however did hike to the bottom. The fall is glorious up close. As for me I was content with the photos I took roadside.
