Upper Caney Creek Falls. Is located in the William B. Bankhead National Forest in Double Springs, Alabama. It’s beauty is worth the approximately 1 mile hike 1-way to see it.
This waterfall is feed by the waters of Caney Creek. It’s an excellent nature hike, but be careful of the step terrain as you near the Waterfall.
It’s also a nice place to take a dip in the cool, and refreshing water of Caney Creek in the summer months. The Water is clear enough that you can see the bottom from all points of the waterfall pool.
