Hike and Swim
Looking Glass Falls is a gorgeous and easily accessible waterfall in Brevard, North Carolina. This waterfall is a short and beautiful walk from Pigsah Highway (Highway 276). Parking is available just off the highway, but is limited. The accessibility and unique beauty of this waterfall make it a popular place to visit. For easier parking visitors should consider arriving early or coming on weekdays.
Looking Glass Falls is a cascading waterfall that drops off a sheer and mossy, stone cliff. The cliff pierces through the surrounding lush green, trees creating a stunning contrast. Beneath the waterfall the water pools into an area that has become popular for wading. The cool water is enjoyable on summer days, but those who wish to enjoy the pool should be cautious, as the water flows quickly and the rocks can be slippery.
The walk to the waterfall is short and surrounded by beautiful trees. This walk is great to take year round, enjoying the beautiful colors in the fall and interesting ice formations on the waterfall in the winter.
