Rainbow Falls is one of the most popular waterfalls in Western North Carolina. And with good reason - it is 150 feet high and can create multiple rainbows in the right conditions.
Rainbow Falls is located within Gorges State Park which is located off of highway 281 (also called Whitewater Falls Road). The hike to Rainbow Falls is approximately 1.5 miles. It is mostly downhill so expect the trek back to the parking area to be uphill.
It can be hot in the summer, so pack water and snacks and prepare for unexpected showers or storms to hit - especially in the afternoon.
As with any waterfall, go early and you can avoid crowds. Most afternoons and weekends can become quite crowded.
This video provides some detailed info and shows the entire hiking journey to reach the falls, along with a few images of Rainbow Falls throughout various times of the year. This particular video was shot in September.
The hiking trail continues to two more waterfalls - one being the popular "Turtleback Falls". If you would like to see my video on "How to Hike to Turtleback Falls", please click here:
