Fun fact: Indiana is home to 22 known and named waterfalls. Oftentimes, though, there are even more – especially when it’s snowmelt season or after we’ve had good rainfall. Some of the waterfalls in Indiana tend to get a little more attention than the rest (like, for example, Williamsport Falls – which is pretty awesome), and this means that other falls might go a little bit under the radar. Well, I’d like to take a moment right now to appreciate a particular Indiana waterfall that seems to get overlooked a lot: it’s called Muscatatuck Falls, and it’s a sight to behold! Check it out:

In actuality, the falls are a multi-tiered wonder - you'll notice that they actually extend about 70 total feet downward!

As the water rushes past the rocks, it creates an amazingly powerful - but still somehow soothing - sound that you'll hear coming for quite a while before you arrive.
You can even hike behind the falls (though I don't recommend doing that when the falls are really flowing).
