Photo Suggestions

Start with photographing from the top of the parking lot at the wheelchair accessible overlook
 
Then photograph all the way down to the falls, stopping at each set of stairs. 
 
Go behind the falls and photograph the falling water.  You will need a lens cloth to wipe off the droplets of water that land on your lens.
 
Go through the falls and photograph from the over view point.

Don't forget to photograph the river (Cullasaja River).


Driving Tips and Other Information

Coming from Highlands, take Hwy 64 west for just over 3 miles from it's intersection with Hwy 106. Pass or stop at Bridal Veil Falls, then look for a brown and white forest service sign for Dry Falls and turn left into the parking area.

If you miss the 1st turn into the parking area, you can take the next one on the left. If you are coming from Franklin, Dry Falls is about 5.5 miles past Cullasaja Falls. There's a Forest Service sign coming from this way also. Both waterfalls are on the Cullasaja River.
 

Parking maybe a problem during peak times.  Just wait (out of the way) until a space opens up.  Expect high visitor volume during the middle of the day.

At this time, there is a $3.00 vehicle fee.
 

A section of these falls are wheelchair accessible.  You can get a good over look of the falls.

Just before you get to the overlook there is a concrete walkway that winds down a few sets of steps, past some neat rock outcrops.  The path changes to gravel as it continues behind the falls.  There is another overlook at this point.
 

It got the name Dry Fall because you can walk behind the falls.
 
Consider visiting some other falls when you are in the area; Bust Your Butt Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and Cullasaja Falls.
 
Bathroom facilities are available.
