Silvervale Falls is a 80 foot roadside waterfall located in Caldwell County, near Blowing Rock, NC. There is a parking space right next to the waterfall, so there is no need to hike to this waterfall. It is quite pretty when not marked up by graffiti. Luckily the day I went, a lot of the graffiti had been cleaned off so it was much prettier than in previous years. Silvervale Falls is best visited in the morning or at dusk for the best photographs.
Silvervale Falls is not far from Blowing Rock, the Blue Ridge Parkway and Tweetsie Railroad so if you’re in the area, this waterfall would make a great addition to your trip.
From the Blue Ridge Parkway: Take the exit for US-221 S/US-321 S (Blowing Rock). From the exit ramp, make a right turn. Continue to follow US-321 S, driving south down the mountain for 8.7 miles. Pass by United Community Bank (on the right in 1.5 miles). Turn right onto Waterfalls Road. Drive 1.8 miles to Silvervale Falls, which will be on your left.
Google sent us to a house with concrete ducks down the driveway it felt like a wronge turn movie we stopped at the house and did the walk down the rest of the drive to find a old half dirt covered paved road ,creepy deal!!
I know we’ve had Google (and other GPS services) take us the wrong way several times. I don’t remember the ducks or dirt road, but things do change. This is a roadside, so you should only have to park, and you see it right there.
