About Looking Glass Falls

An easy to get to, picture-perfect waterfall with a 60-foot drop in Pisgah National Forest. The waterfall access is located just a few miles in from the forest’s entrance in the Brevard/Pisgah Forest area. It’s right off the road, so no hiking is required to view the falls. You can either check it out from the observation deck at the top or take the stairs down to get a bit closer. There’s a swimming hole at the bottom of the falls if you are up for a swim in cold water! It can get a bit rough if the water is really flowing, so pay close attention to the posted signs and be careful!

If you are coming from the Pisgah Forest/Brevard entrance to the national forest, you’ll pass The Velvet Cup and The Hub/Pisgah Tavern on the way in! We love grabbing a coffee and mini donuts from Velvet Cup. The Hub typically has a food truck available if you need more sustenance. Dolly’s Dairy Bar is also right there and Wild Hog BBQ is just across the street.
