The USA Waterfalls page covers the waterfalls that we’ve visited from coast-to-coast in the United States of America. We try to visit any waterfall we can in the US, and this even includes the detached states of Alaska and Hawaii.

So far, Julie and I have visited waterfalls in at least 38 states, but we always look for opportunities to do more (though it gets increasingly difficult due to school schedules).

Nevertheless, we have a pretty extensive survey of waterfalls in the US, and this page necessarily had to truncate the waterfalls list into just the most recent new waterfall write-ups that we’ve done. To see the full list of waterfalls, you can use the table found at the bottom of the Destinations page, or you can look into the comprehensive lists from each of the states that we’ve seen at least one waterfall in.

Indeed, there’s a lot going on regarding waterfalls in the USA, and it could take a lifetime just waterfalling in this country alone! So check out our humble sampling and explore America the beautiful!
