ストークス郡の滝・トップ5

Once you've reached Window Falls, there is a viewing point on top of the falls but you can also climb down to the lower part of the waterfall where you can climb behind the waterfall (depending on weather conditions) and get soaking wet. The falls are named for a hole in the rock, that looks like a little window.

Indian Creek Trail has a length of 3.8 miles (one-way) and is famous for its two main waterfalls, 'Hidden Falls' and 'Window Falls'. But besides those two highlights, there is a lot more to enjoy along the hike, following Indian Creek from the Visitor Center of Hanging Rock State Park to Dan River. You will see multiple small cascades and waterfalls, walk over wooden broadwalks and cross Indian Creek.

Rock Garden is just a short walk from the Visitor Center of Hanging Rock State Park and the trail, up to the edge of the garden, is wheelchair accessible. Inside Rock Garden you will find rocks in all imaginable shapes and balancing on each other. A perfect spot, especially for kids.

Upper Cascades in Hanging Rock State Park are fed by a tributary of Cascades Creek. To reach the lower part of the cascades, you will find stairs at the waterfalls.
