Deep Creek Waterfalls Details
A short, easy walk from Deep Creek Trail, these two wildly popular falls drop 25 feet through a stunning old hardwood forest that, in the spring, is well known for its beautiful wildflower display. Tom Branch Falls is located on the far side of Deep Creek, near the junction of Deep Creek and Indian Creek Trails, while Indian Creek Falls are a short distance down Indian Creek Trail. There are excellent views of both waterfalls from the trail, as well as a number of benches and bridges for picnics and quiet repose. Trailhead: Follow the signs through downtown Bryson City to Deep Creek Campground. Continue past the campground to the trailhead at the end of Deep Creek Road.
