High Falls of the Cheat
Glady, WV
Winding through Shavers Mountain in the Potomac Highlands off Route 44, the High Falls of the Cheat is one of the Mountain State’s most distinctive waterfalls. Though these falls are short in height, their signature feature is an impressive width, with cascades roaring across the mountainsides over a horseshoe bend of rocks. Find this spot along the High Falls Trail, which boasts a beautiful, yet challenging 10-plus mile hike. For easier access, there is a train that takes visitors to the waterfall.
