Offering something for hikers of every level of experience, waterfalls range in height from 10 to 500 feet, some requiring no hike at all while others include hikes of up to 10 miles. Waterfalls of the Blue Ridge also includes detailed trail distances and information, waterfall descriptions, and specific trailhead directions.

In this guide, today’s most experienced guidebook author Johnny Molloy teams up with authors Nicole Blouin and Marilou & Steve Bordonaro to introduce hikers to waterfalls spanning 2 states, 4 national forests, 3 national parks, and 8 state parks all throughout the Blue Ridge.
