Upper Falls at Falls Hollow in Augusta County, VA

Falls Hollow trail goes up Elliott Knob to eventually connect onto the Elliott Knob access road. There are 7-8 waterfalls along the trail of varying sizes. The largest, Upper Falls, is about 15 feet tall and 20 feet wide during the wet season. There is a cave back behind the falls so one can walk through the water of the falls and sit in the cave behind the curtain of water.
