Not sure where to begin?

Niagara Falls and the Maid of the Mist
Check out our favorites such as our World's Top 10 or our Regional Favorites. Or perhaps, you're curious about which falls are the tallest (we've got two lists; one based on cumulative height and another based on highest vertical drop).

Looking for a more human element? We've got travel stories (or travel diaries) giving you a sense of what we experienced on our travels. These stories can be entertaining as well as informational by giving you a heads up on what it might be like to go waterfalling in unfamiliar places. Or if you're wondering what waterfalls do for us and why we care about them so much, we've written a couple of pieces regarding this topic as well!

Inspired enough to make your waterfalling trip a reality? Check out our Itineraries so you can get an idea of what it took us to make it happen and plan your trip accordingly.

Looking to see what's new in the World of Waterfalls? Follow us and connect with fellow waterfallers by liking our Facebook page. You can also see our updates page to see which pages on this website have been created, changed, or updated.

Want to learn more about waterfalls? We've compiled a few articles about the science behind waterfalls from how they're formed to how you measure their height to even how you determine if a waterfall is legitimate or not. We also have a compilation of waterfall- and travel-related books that we've either read and reviewed or that we find interesting and perhaps beneficial to waterfallers.

We've also composed featured articles discussing various topics from waterfall photography to Niagara Falls' importance in American history. We even chronicled our ordeal in dealing with the insurance company after hitting a kangaroo on a waterfalling trip in Australia.

Finally, we welcome visitor contributions and waterfall reviews. We know just about everyone has stories to tell or something to say once they've been affected by waterfalls in some way. And if you have questions, comments, or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
