About This Waterfall
Glen Falls is one of the more significant waterfalls in North Carolina. The falls consist of three distinct sections - two broad horsetail type falls of about 100 feet each, with a section of cascades about 35-feet tall in between the two. An upper and lower falls can be found on either side of Glen Falls itself, both separated by enough distance that they should be considered entirely separate waterfalls.
