Love chasing waterfalls? South Carolina’s western-most counties are an ideal place to do just that! You’ll find waterfall trails here ranging from just a few hundred yards to more than 70 miles long – and each one is stunning in its own way. If it’s a short and sweet hike you desire, head to this double waterfall near Sunset. It’s known under a few names: Reedy Cove Falls, Eastatoe Falls, and more commonly, Twin Falls.

Whatever name you want to give to it, this double waterfall is astoundingly impressive.

It consists of two distinct waterfalls that eventually converge into one.
The larger of the two falls (pictured on the left in this photo) is a 70-foot vertical drop over a stacked granite cliff, where it then runs nearly horizontal before joining the other falls in a meandering cascade further downstream.

The other waterfall cascades gracefully down a rocky passage several yards to the right of the vertical waterfall. If you want to see them in person (who wouldn't?), access to the falls can be gained through a couple of trails on a nature preserve.
