Rocky Falls in Missouri may not exactly be hidden, but it certainly is one of the state’s many gems. While it draws visitors all year around, this Missouri natural wonder is particularly popular during the summertime. Bring your beach gear (and some food!) because you’re in for a one-of-a-kind adventure at this beautiful waterfall.
Just 20 minutes from Eminence, Rocky Falls has been a beloved gem for generations. After all, the waterfall, comprised of rocks dating back 1.5 billion years, offers plenty to do.
It probably goes without saying that the Missouri waterfall can get extremely busy, especially on the hottest days of the summer. Just be prepared to deal with crowds.
Even if you're not up for a swim or visit during the off-season, you'll be treated to jaw-dropping views in all seasons. Make sure you drop by during the peak of fall foliage and when the snow frames the waterfall.
