Linville is a community centered just south of the US 221 and NC 105 intersection in Avery County, North Carolina. The community—at times known as Clay or Porcelain—was founded in 1883 and designed by Samuel T. Kelsey of Kansas, and named for William and John Linville, who were killed by Cherokees in 1766. The East Tennessee and Western North Carolina Railroad passed through the community from 1916 until 1940, when a major flood washed away the tracks. The old rail route later became NC 105 in 1956.

Chasing Waterfalls ~ North Carolina Waterfall Tour

Recently me & Wifey decided to take a weekend trip to see as many NC waterfalls as possible in the Asheville, NC area. Western NC has an abundance of beautiful waterfalls. We estimated our trip would be around 200 miles round-trip starting in Asheville.

We ended up visiting 8 waterfalls. Some of these waterfalls require quite long hikes because they were remote. It was a very fun and tiring trip. We saw a lot of beautiful scenery and now we are pumped to visit even more waterfalls all over North Carolina.

The 8 waterfalls we visited:
Linville Waterfalls
Crabtree Falls
Roaring Fork Falls
Soco Falls
Mingo Falls
Juney Whank Falls
Toms Branch Falls
Indian Creek Falls

The last 3 waterfalls were located in Smokey Mountains ark in Bryson City, NC.

I used an iPhone 5 and a Canon 60D to shoot all of this video.

I hope you enjoy the video. Fell free to share with others and subscribe to catch all of our adventures.
