Swain County North Carolina Waterfalls

Located within the Deep Creek Area of the
Great Smoky
Mountains National Park, the 35' Indian Creek Falls only
requires a 1.6 mile roundtrip hike and offers a bonus of viewing
Toms Branch Falls along the
way.
To reach Indian Creek Falls from Bryson City, North Carolina,
travel 2 miles along West Deep Creek Road until entering the
Deep Creek area of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. In
the park continue another 0.75 miles to the parking lot where
the paved road ends. Park your car.
At the north end of the parking lot, past the turn-around
circle, the dirt road continues past a vehicle barrier, at which
point Deep Creek Road becomes Deep Creek Trail. Follow the trail
past Toms Branch Falls to the junction of Indian Creek Trail
(right fork) and continue about 200' to Indian Creek Falls.
