This natural wonder is the second highest free-falling waterfall in the state. It was also used as a filming location for the Disney movie, Tuck Everlasting.
You can visit Kilgore Falls year-round but summertime is most popular because you can stand right under the falls!

This looks extremely refreshing.
Water height varies depending on season or recent rainfall. Be aware that this area is swim-at-your-own-risk, with no lifeguards on duty.

You can simply wade along the perimeter or head towards to falls where the water is a bit deeper.
Those interested in visiting Kilgore Falls during summer should be sure to arrive early. Hot summer days (especially weekends) could get crowded.
