Ozone Falls State Natural Area

Ozone Falls is a waterfall in Cumberland County that plunges about 110 feet into a deep pool, surrounded by steep rock walls and dense forest. The water forms a vertical cascade that flows into a natural basin lined with large boulders.

The site served as a filming location in the 1990s for a major motion picture, highlighting its importance as a natural landmark. The area was later protected to preserve its geological features and natural habitat.

The film production team of the 1994 Disney adaptation of The Jungle Book selected Ozone Falls as a filming location for several key scenes.

A short trail of about 0.3 miles leads to both viewing points of the waterfall, with the lower path requiring navigation over large rock boulders. Good footwear is important since the ground can be slippery, especially after rain when the area becomes very damp.

The natural area encompasses 43 acres and includes Fall Creek, which flows year-round, keeping the waterfall active in every season. This constant water supply means the cascade maintains its power regardless of weather or time of year.
