About Looking Glass Falls
Looking Glass Falls was certainly one of the prettier and easy-to-access waterfalls we’ve seen during our time in Brevard.
As a result, this 60ft falls was definitely popular let alone one of the most photographed and painted waterfalls this side of North Carolina.

After all, we’ve seen it appear in numerous galleries, restaurants, and even published works (i.e. books, maps, and brochures) scattered throughout town.
Perhaps it was its shape with a slanted top and a wide girth (thanks to its reliable flow) that made this one seem so pleasing to our eyes (as well as those of many others, I’m sure).
Although the Looking Glass Falls could be seen from the long pullout alongside the highway 276 (see directions below), there were steps that led down to the creek bed where we got frontal views of the waterfall.
Besides the popularity of this falls, the only thing that really kept us from lingering longer than we did was the presence of yellow jacket wasps.

They seemed to be attracted to sweets tossed in the rubbish bins found the walking path to the falls.
