Set within the Cahaba River Wildlife Management Area, about 40 miles south of Birmingham in Montevallo, Falling Rock Falls is a spectacular 90-foot ribbon of water that cascades over a towering bluff and crashes onto the boulders below.
The waterfall is accessed via an easy 1.4-mile out-and-back hike, which leads directly to the bottom of the falls, with a cavern where people like to sit and watch the cascade of falling water.
The terrain near the falls is very slippery, and extreme caution needs to be taken if climbing down to the base of the falls.
Cahaba WMA, Montevallo, AL 35115
