Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Star Creek Falls is a 50 to 60-foot-high multi-tiered waterfall located in the beautiful Daniel Boone National Forest in Whitley County. The falls can be reached by hiking for about 2 miles along the Sheltowee Trace via Dog Slaughter Trail #414. The Sheltowee Trace is also known as the Moonbow Trail, which runs parallels to the Cumberland River and features several key attractions and interesting rock formations en route, including Godzilla Rock, which is the size of a mansion and boasts an enormous body and elongated neck that stretches out over the trail, resembling a giant lizard towering overhead. Another unusual rock formation worth seeing along the way is Star Creek Arch, which is formed by a massive boulder wedged precariously between two natural stone abutments that have likely stood for centuries.
