Joro Falls is a scenic 30-foot waterfall located on a northeastern tributary of Nimblewill Creek, a few miles south of Bearden Falls. To access it, hike to the end of gated FR 28D, a spur road off Nimblewill Gap Road (FR 28-2). The road ends after about one mile of hiking. Keep bushwhacking off-trailup the valley through mostly open forests for another half-mile to Joro Falls.
