Located about 4 miles south of Cashiers, in the beautiful Nantahala National Forest, the Silver Run Falls are definitely worth a visit on a hot summer day. The 25-ft waterfall plummets over a rocky ledge to drop into a beautiful natural pool with a small beach area, making this spot a popular summer swimming hole. To reach the falls you will need to park your car along the roadside (NC Hwy 107) at the designated area and take a short hike (around ΒΌ mile) along a clearly marked flat trail, over the bridge, and past a few observation points. The falls are also very beautiful when they freeze over in winter.
