It’s not a secret at all that we here at Only In Your State are big fans of waterfalls. And who could blame us? There’s just something objectively amazing about watching water… well, fall… and even in the winter, it’s a sight to behold. Enter the amazing Cataract Falls, located within the aptly-named Cataract Falls State Recreation Area; as Indiana’s largest waterfall by volume, it’s an incredible experience… but in the winter, once everything is frozen over (or even in the process of freezing over), it’s especially magical. Check out the most spellbinding frozen waterfall in Indiana this winter for an awe-inspiring adventure… just be sure to dress warmly!
