What are some must-visit waterfalls near me in Cincinnati?
While the above road trip to the best wineries and waterfalls explores destinations in the Buckeye State, Cincinnati is well-positioned for some epic waterfall chasing in its neighbor to the south, too! We're talking, of course, about Kentucky, and while this state is perhaps best-known for its epic, underground adventures, there are some truly bucket-list-worthy waterfalls in the Bluegrass State, too. Cumberland Falls is easily the most famous and well-known; known as Kentucky's "Niagara of the South," this majestic 68-foot tall, 125-foot wide waterfall on the Cumberland River is an extraordinary sight to behold. Fun fact: Cumberland Falls is the second-largest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains! Not only is Cumberland Falls an awe-inspiring force; it's also the site of a rare natural phenomenon, too. Known as a "moonbow," Cumberland Falls is one of the few places on the planet that regularly produces this prismatic phenomenon, created when light is refracted in the waterfall's spraying water droplets. The moonbow lingers above the falls for up to two days as long as the sky is clear, on either end of the full moon, and it's truly a waterfall chaser's bucket-list must.
Just a stone's throw from Cumberland Falls, you'll find Eagle Falls, another winsome waterfall in the Bluegrass State. At 44-feet tall, it's quite a bit smaller than Cumberland Falls, but what Eagle Falls lacks in size, it more than makes up for in beauty. The cascades tumble in perfect formation over several rocks and small cliffs. In the autumn, with the fall foliage and golden sunlight, this sublime scene will take your breath away.
