Description
The Chimney Rock State Park web page describes Hickory Nut Falls as one of the tallest waterfalls east of the Mississippi River... with a magnificent view from the base of this 404-foot natural wonder. It was featured in the epic film, "The Last of the Mohicans." This cool, refreshing stop is a "must-see" during your visit to Chimney Rock."
Short Run: Use the Hickory Nut Falls Trail to access the Falls from the parking lot. The out-and-back distance is about 1.5 miles.
