Issaqueena Falls

Beautiful waterfall!😍 I choose to climb down where you can view the waterfall. That way I can get a better picture. Be careful if you decide to climb down.There is also a tunnel you can go see not far from the falls. That was cool to see.

Beautiful area with a historic tale. The trip down to the bottom of the falls is extremely steep and not for everybody but just the short trail to the lookout area is worth the time. The views are incredible. Great place to spend the afternoon and have a picnic.

You can barely see the falls from the upper observation deck otherwise all the scenery around the upper area and looking out from the upper observation day are great banana is a very Steep and long walk down to the base of the falls where you may have a better look at The Falls

A short hike to this amazing view of Issaqueena Falls. Right next to Stumphouse Tunnel, there are signboards that show directions. The place has a rich history and is a rich natural heritage in South Carolina. Loved the place and enjoyed a moderate hike down to the falls! Ideal to spend some me time here! I would highly recommend visiting it in the spring season.

Nice easy drive from I 85 from Fairplay SC. Plenty of parking and a short hike. If you're adventurous the way down is not bad, if it's dry. I had a walking stick which helped. Pick your way carefully and you'll be fine. Beautiful view from the bottom. Highly recommend the short drive from Fairplay, about 45 minutes. Check out the Stumphouse tunnel while there. Hiking and mountain biking at the Palmetto Trail. Picnic area and non flush restrooms. Better than nothing. Can get busy. Glad I went. Kid friendly and pets too.

These falls paired with the Stumphouse Tunnel make for a great day trip. It's a short walk to the top of the falls and the overlook. The hike down to the bottom of the waterfall is a little tough. My 5yo little girl did it mostly by herself, but def plan on assisting small kids down. Cool little pool at the bottom of the waterfall. We did see a water snake down there so keep your eyes peeled while playing.

I wish there was an easier way to get closer to the falls, it's very steep and covered in fallen leaves right now other than that it's gorgeous here. There is a pathway to an observation deck so you can still see the falls which is nice. There's also 3 or 4 little picnic tables nearby

Love coming here with my family or for a solo hike. Peaceful and clean. The park rangers do a great job of making sure the area is free and clear for families to enjoy. Plenty of parking if you go into the picnic area which is conveniently located In between the falls and stump hose tunnel. Issaqueena is a wild area so be sure to be mindful of snakes and animals as we are visiting their house.
