GPS Location:

Waterfall Height:

50 feet

Lower Tufa Falls is a 50-foot waterfall on Waterfall Branch, located northwest of the Blue Hole spring. A second waterfall lies a short distance upstream. Waterfall Branch likes to flow underground throughout most of the year, so the waterfall is largely dry except after heavy rain. However, even in a dry spell, this waterfall is interesting because of its unique tufa deposits. Access requires bushwhacking from the Blue Hole.
