Water Flows from Two Falls

There are actually two waterfalls here, near Brevard, each on a separate creek. At the overlook, stand at the top of Connestee Falls on Carson Creek. Across the gorge, Batson Creek Falls cascades down to meet Connestee. The now-joined creeks squeeze through a cleft known as Silver Slip, but can’t see it from the upper overlook. Can see Batson Creek Falls pretty well from the overlook, but not Connestee.

Lower Level Asygarth Falls

Aysgarth Falls is actually a series of three main waterfalls, which the signs referred to them as Upper, Middle, and Lower. Rather than being dramatic drops over a cliff, these waterfalls are really more like cascades that might be friendly for photography enthusiasts. The Lower Falls offer a place to walk on the rocks along the river and view the River Ure flowing downstream.
