    Hiking

    The trail to the Tom Branch Falls starts at Deep Creek Trailhead. After walking about 500 m along the Deep Creek Trail, you can see the 18-meter-high Tom Branch Falls.

    Hiking

    The name of this waterfall is „Tom Branch Falls“ and it is way more beautiful than I thought. Because of it's structure this waterfall is hard to capture in it's entire beauty by camera. There are a few benches in front of the falls so you can relax while enjoying the waterfall. Only setback is that this place is very, very busy because Deep Creek is
    probably the most popular place for tubing for many, many miles. So if you don't go early expect a lot of kids walking up the trail and floating down the creek.
