Waterfalls are far and few between here in Mississippi. However, there is one place they exist in abundance, and it’s Clark Creek Natural Area. Like something from another world, the natural area is brimming with dozens of waterfalls – and that’s in addition to other rare sights, like boulders and other big rock formations.
With more than 50 falls, Clark Creek Natural Area in Woodville is a waterfall wonderland.
As you can see from the map, most of the falls are situated along the park’s primitive and improved trails. Not all of the cascades are so easy to access, though. Take note of the waterfalls scattered about the map.
A plethora of waterfalls isn’t the only thing that makes Clark Creek Natural Area unique, though.
Living up to its reputation as “one of the Magnolia State's most beautiful outdoor treasures,” its landscape is stunning – and one that’s not mimicked anywhere else in the state.
First, the natural area is extremely remote, which means medical assistance is a long way off, so it's important to use caution when exploring the waterfalls. Second, make sure to bring along water, especially during the hot days of summer.
