Upper and Lower Satulah Falls

Highlands, NC

Directions: Upper Satulah Falls spills out where NC 28 crossed Clear Creek 2.3 miles south of US 64 in Highlands. It’s not a great view. Difficulty: There’s not a safe spot to pull off.

About: If you keep going on NC 28, 3.55 miles south of US 64 in Highlands, you come to Satulah Overlook and you can see Lower Satulah Falls. It’s not a spectacular waterfall by any stretch of the imagination.

Difficulty: Easy as pie. Just don’t expect to be shocked or awed.
