@nimble25: We hiked Catawba Falls clockwise: 2.1 miles up the Ridge Trail, then took the ~540+ steps DOWN to the falls finishing on the 1.1-mile River Trail back. It was hot and definitely a solid workout, but easily one of the most stunning waterfalls I’ve ever seen! Pro tip: Believe the warning signs at the entrance and pack plenty of water! You will need every drop. Asheville ExploreNC #CatawbaFalls #NCWaterfalls #NCAdventures #creatorsearchinsights #travelingplaces
