Where the Waterfalls Are
Five Points sits in or near the North Florida and Panhandle Sinkhole Country area of Florida. Both of Florida's listed waterfalls lie in the northern tier of the state, where gently rolling uplands sit above the limestone and sinkholes are common. Falling Water, near Chipley, is the centerpiece of a state park where a boardwalk leads to an overlook of the sinkhole the stream disappears into; it is widely described as the tallest waterfall in Florida. Falling Creek Falls, just north of Lake City, is reached by a short boardwalk through shady hardwood forest and drops over a ledge into a small ravine. Both are short visits that pair well with nearby springs and rivers, and both depend heavily on recent rainfall for their flow. Read the Florida waterfall guide.
