This might be the perfect waterfalls to visit with the whole family. It is an easy 0.6 mile hike to a picturesque 70-foot waterfall where you feel you could relax all day with your feet in the water. King Creek topples over a tiered rock face that slants backwards, making the falls seem much higher than 70-feet. The hiking trail runs through a mixture of hardwoods, rhododendron and mountain laurel.
