2022 Release Days To see the big water, visit on these prescribed recreation flow days (West Fork Tuckasegee River Bypass Releases), 10 AM-4 PM: April 2 & 3, June 4, July 16 & 23, August 6 & 20. Hike Description From the upper trailhead, the hike begins at the gate on High Falls Trail. You’ll descend on the gravel road for just under 0.2 mile, then turn right on the obvious trail. The trail descends a little over 0.6 mile to the falls. It is well graded and easy to follow but is steep in places and has lots of steps. From the lower trailhead, take the side road that forks to the right off Shoal Creek Mountain Road. It has an orange gate. You’ll cross Shoal Creek on an auto bridge at 0.1 mile and come to a fork at 0.2 mile. Go left and ascend gradually for 0.4 mile. The trail swings around a ridge, then descends gradually for over 1 mile to a side path on the right. The side path leads to a view of Rough Run Falls. From the side path, it’s another 0.3 mile to High Falls. When you get close to the falls, you’ll have to scramble along the rocks to reach the base. Most of the lower trail is not on Duke Energy property. The landowners allow public access provided visitors follow these conditions: no four-wheelers or other motorized vehicles, no littering, no camping, no campfires of any kind, no fishing or hunting. In other words, conduct yourself as you would anytime you’re on another person’s property. Break these rules and access for everyone could be denied.

High Falls and Triple Falls Tour is a 3.3 mile heavily trafficked loop trail located near Hendersonville, North Carolina that features a waterfall and is rated as moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.

If you are a waterfall chaser, this is a great one! We enjoyed our visit and the hike up to the falls is a pretty easy walk.

This is on the way to Triple Falls. A beauty for sure!! There is a short low hike to the base, and a longer hike over the covered bridge. Great ranger station and restrooms at this location.
