    Tips

    February 6, 2024

    The Big Bear Trail, that leads to the falls of the same name, is one of the newest in the South Mountain State Park and makes a visit to the waterfalls possible. Compared to the famous High Shoals Falls, those falls are way less popular (but no less beautiful!) and if you're lucky, you can enjoy the waterfalls without any other people.
