The 8 Most Breathtaking Waterfalls in the United States

The 8 Most Breathtaking Waterfalls in the United States-title

When you’re neck-deep in the middle of the workweek, it can be quite easy to forget just how beautiful the American landscape that surrounds us really is. Even in the most urban areas of the country, one is only a short drive’s length away from some of the most breathtaking vistas in the entire world!

If you’ve got a yen for getting out in the great outdoors here in the United States, then have we got a treat for you! On the list below, we’ve collected what we believe are the eight most breathtaking waterfalls in the United States.

From the east coast to the west coast and everywhere in between, these are the eight great American waterfalls. Of course, the big one, Niagara Falls, is on the list. But the other seven might be waterfalls that you’ve never heard of before, let alone never seen.

If you’re thinking about a camping trip, or planning a trip to another region of the country, then you should check out this list. Any one of these eight waterfalls would absolutely justify a trip in and of themselves. Enjoy!
