Where are the best waterfalls in Kentucky?

Kentucky may be known for its lush green rolling hills and wide-open horse country, but we have some amazing waterfalls as well. Here are a few of the best waterfalls in Kentucky so you can enjoy a hike and a cool-off any time you lease:

  • Dog Slaughter Falls, Whitley County, KY: Deep in the woods of the Daniel Boone National Forest is one of Kentucky's most scenic waterfalls. This 15-foot cascade of water slides off a shelf of moss-covered granite and plunges into a pool of water that is so serene it has its own tranquil energy. Not only is this a wonderful waterfall, but it is a nice hidden swimming hole on a h pot day.
  • Grotto Falls, Grayson Lake, KY: This truly magical grotto is like a secret cavern with a surprising waterfall at the end. Grayson Lake makes an excellent kayaking lake and the falls area is this hidden cove that is simply sublime when accessed via kayak. You can even kayak behind the falls for an even more special hideaway.
  • Lava Falls, London, KY: Another enchanting waterfall in Kentucky is Lava Falls. It is one of those multi-tiered waterfalls that seem to go on forever. It takes a bit of a hike to get there, but it is well worth the effort. Plus you are rewarded with a splash in a cool waterfall.
