Waterfalls of the Flume
The waterfalls of The Flume (more formally the Flume-Pool Loop) were really more of an excuse to talk about what we had read in the literature to be perhaps the most popular hike in New Hampshire…
Sabbaday Falls
Sabbaday Falls was a multi-tiered waterfall twisting within a narrow gorge that was said to be carved out from the last Ice Age. It was said to have a cumulative drop of 35ft though that seemed…
Moss Glen Falls (Stowe)
Moss Glen Falls was one of two waterfalls that we visited having the same name in the same state of Vermont on the same day. This one was located near the charming town of Stowe, which seemed to…
Tannery Falls
Tannery Falls was perhaps the one waterfall in the New England area that was probably the hardest to get to during our visit in 2013. Whether it was by circumstance or it was just the way it was…
Moss Glen Falls (Granville)
Moss Glen Falls was actually one of two waterfalls by the same name in the same state of Vermont that happened to be the only two waterfalls we visited in the state during our 2013 trip to New…
Campbell Falls
Campbell Falls was a very photogenic waterfall where I was glad I brought my tripod. Since I made my visit on a cool crisp early morning, the low light made it practically necessary to have the…
Bash Bish Falls
Bash Bish Falls (sometimes written out as a single word like Bashbish Falls) was one of the more memorably-named waterfalls that we could remember. For some reason, I was always tempted…
Natural Bridge of New England Waterfalls (Hudson Brook Chasm)
The Natural Bridge of New England really pertained to the natural bridge formation that was unique in that it was composed of marble. In fact, during our visit to this park, we noticed there were…
Kent Falls
Kent Falls was perhaps one of the more family-friendly waterfalls we had experienced during our New England trip in 2013. The reason why I say this is because the falls was fronted by a very large…
Chapman Falls
Chapman Falls was the first waterfall that we saw on our New England trip in 2013. We managed to see it as part of a long drive from Cape Cod in the far southeastern end of Massachusetts towards…
Onion Valley Waterfalls
The Onion Valley Waterfalls are what I’m dubbing the series of cascades draining the many lakes of Onion Valley between Kearsarge Pass and Independence. They were merely my waterfalling excus…
L’Orrido di Sant’Anna
L’Orrido di Sant’Anna pertained to the name of a church by the hamlet of Traffiume, which belonged to the larger town of Cannobio. We were also led to believe in the literature (and in our DK…
Cascata di Foroglio
Cascata di Foroglio (Foroglio Waterfall) was a gorgeous waterfall free-falling some 80m from a hanging valley (Val Calnegia) with a power and grace that made this perhaps the prime natural attraction.
Cascata di Bignasco
Cascata di Bignasco was a surprisingly satisfying waterfall that we noticed while we were headed up the Valle Maggia en route to the Cascata di Foroglio. At first, we intended to treat it like the…
Cascata del Gorg d’Abiss
Cascata del Gorg d’Abiss was another one of those obscure waterfalls that we didn’t plan on visiting when we set out on our 2013 trip to Italy. It wasn’t until I was trying to figure out the name…
Cascata del Varone
Cascata del Varone (Waterfall of the Varone) was one of the more unique waterfall experiences we had in Italy. It was basically a waterfall that had carved deep slots into the mountain. There…
“Cascata di Trento” (“Trento Waterfall”)
“Cascata di Trento” (“Waterfall of Trento”) is a name that I made up for this rather prominent yet obscure waterfall that we noticed multiple times while both driving by and touring the city of…
Cascate di Nardis
Cascate di Nardis (Nardis Waterfalls) seemed to be pretty well-known waterfalls as we became aware of it prior to our Italy trip through our DK guidebook as well as a visitor’s waterfall submission…
Cascate di Lares
Cascate di Lares (Lares Waterfalls) were a series of a lower and upper waterfalls that we actually didn’t plan on seeing (let alone know about) prior to the start of our Italy trip in 2013…
Cascate di Riva (Reinbachfalle)
Le Cascate di Riva (Riva Waterfalls; also Reinbachfälle in German) was a series of attractive waterfalls. From what we could tell, there were three main drops on the Riva River though there were…
