Waterfalls in West Virginia

93 Waterfalls Found Height Data Available

West Virginia's waterfalls are in the Monongahela National Forest and the New River Gorge region. Blackwater Falls in Tucker County is the landmark: a 57-foot amber-stained waterfall caused by tannic acid from fallen spruce and hemlock, with a boardwalk overlook. Pendleton Lake Falls and Elakala Falls in Canaan Valley are within a short drive. Sandstone Falls on the New River is the widest waterfall in the eastern US — a broad drop across the full river channel — accessible by boardwalk. Falls of Hills Creek near Marlinton has three waterfalls including a 63-foot drop in a protected scenic area.

Waterfall flow varies by season — spring snowmelt produces peak flows. Check trail conditions before visiting remote sites. Some falls are seasonal and may be dry in late summer. Explore all waterfalls on the Trek4Free map →
