Description: Falling
Waters State Park has huge trees and fern-covered sinkholes that line Sink Hole
Trail, the boardwalk that leads visitors to Florida's highest waterfall. Falling

small stream that drops 73 feet to the bottom of the sink. The water's final
destination remains unknown. Visitors can see beautiful native and migrating
butterflies in the butterfly garden, take a dip in the lake, or have a family
picnic. Hikers can experience the verdant, gently sloping landscape of North
Florida. Activities: Popular activities include hiking, swimming,
wildlife viewing, picknicking, and fishing.
