About this list

Methodology

RoamFound aggregates waterfall location and height data from OpenStreetMap (a worldwide volunteer-maintained map), the U.S. Geological Survey's Geographic Names Information System, the National Park Service, and per-state parks departments. We don't visit every waterfall ourselves — we cite the underlying public records so you can verify.

Outdoor conditions change. Always check current access, water levels, and seasonal closures with the relevant land manager before you go. See our methodology page for the full data sourcing approach.
