Moore Cove Waterfall

Moore Cove Waterfall

Easy
1.4miLength
Canton, NC 28716

Just a quick drive from Canton, NC. This plunge-type waterfall is located in one of the most popular areas of the Pisgah National Forest, near the Davidson River. It's a delightful, beautiful walk thru fern-filled woods. And it's easy enough for families with small children to take. This falls is highly recommended, and a hike to it can be combined with another hike in the area if you are looking for a more difficult day of hiking.
