Our North America Waterfalls page is your gateway to exploring the World of Waterfalls in this vast continent largely dominated by Canada and the United States.

Like with all of our waterfall catalogs in the rest of this website, we primarily showcase the waterfalls (and the countries that host them) that we’ve personally visited. And for each of the countries (i.e. Canada and the United States), we have sub-pages focused on each province or state.

Have a look at the page and drill into the parts of this vast continent that most interests you or your trip planning.

In any case, included in these pages are also visitor-contributed reviews of waterfalls, especially for those we haven’t had a chance to experience yet.
