Jordan Run Falls, Waterfall in Grant County, West Virginia, United States
Jordan Run Falls features a 25 to 30 feet vertical drop where water cascades down through a small canyon in the Appalachian Mountains.
The waterfall forms part of Jordan Run, which has been a natural landmark for local communities and outdoor enthusiasts since the early settlement of West Virginia.
This natural formation serves as a gathering point for kayakers who navigate the Class 5 stream conditions and document their experiences on specialized water sports platforms.
Access to the waterfall requires direct permission from property owners through McGuinness Self Service, located at 4729 Jordan Run Road in Maysville.
The waterfall sits within Jordan Run Gorge, northwest of Smoke Hole Caverns, requiring visitors to trek 0.8 miles upstream through an unmarked stream bed.
