Brooks Branch Falls - Little River Canyon Nature Preserve

Brooks Branch Falls is located inside Little River Canyon Nature Preserve in Fort Payne, Alabama. If you follow the canyon rim parkway, not far past Lynn Overlook you will pass over Brooks Branch.

There is an unofficial overlook where three or four cars can park. There is a way down to the branch and on to the river but it’s pretty difficult. The first step down from the overlook, maybe 10 ft, is the most challenging step because you have to utilize a tree trunk beside a stone wall to climb up and down.

A nice little waterfall which is just below the road marks the head. There is no trail. You just follow Brooks Branch to the river. It isn't far, but getting there involves climbing around boulders and hopping rocks across the branch.

This waterfall is best viewed after heavy rain.
