Tory's Falls (Hanging Rock)

Tory's Falls, also called Tory Falls and Torys Falls is a waterfall in North Central North Carolina, located in Hanging Rock State Park in Stokes County.

History

The falls are located near an area called "Tory's Den", a cave that was purportedly used by Tories during the American Revolution.

Visiting the Falls

The falls are open to the public and are accessible beginning at a parking area on the side of Charlie Young Road. Visitors may take a moderate-difficulty 300 yard (275m) trail to the falls.
