Review:
Located in southeastern Taylor County, the Steinhatchee Falls are the widest waterfalls in Florida and are also both geologically and historically significant. The falls were formed by the action of the flowing waters of the river, which carry significant natural tannins which have leeched into the river from the surrounding vegetation. These tannins gradually erode the limestone to form natural waterfalls. Steinhatchee Falls are most unusual in that they are very shallow – just a few feet in height – and sometimes they disappear altogether when the river is carrying high volumes of water. You should plan your visit to coincide with a dry spell, when the river level is low and the falls can easily been seen.
