Jackson County North Carolina Waterfalls
|
Located within Qualla Indian Reservation, Soco Falls is
double waterfall which requires only a five minute walk to
reach. A viewing platform is available at Soco Falls. The trail
to the platform begins at a break in the guard rail. Follow the
trail along the guard rail, away from the falls before cutting
back down toward the platform.
A steep, unmaintained trail is located to the left of the
platform which leads down to the top of the smaller falls before
continuing down to the creek below. This trail can be very
slippery.
To Soco Falls from Maggie Valley travel along Highway 19
south to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Cross under the Parkway and
continue along Highway 19 toward Cherokee for 1.5 miles while
watching for a small blue sign for Soco Falls.
