Help improve Atlas Obscura by expanding Cathedral Falls with additional information or photos.
One of West Virginia’s tallest waterfalls can be found outside of Gauley Bridge, where Cane Creek drops some 60 feet over a rocky ledge of sandstone and shale. The waterfall is located just off of Highway 60, and can be seen with just a short walk from the parking area.
As with many waterfalls, water levels can be reduced to a trickle during dry times.
