A low (about 12 feet) but roughly 100-foot-wide ledge waterfall where the Fall Fork of Clifty Creek drops over a limestone bed in a 44-acre state nature preserve. Parking sits close to Trail 1, making it a short walk to the cascades.
At 12 ft, it stands above roughly 4% of the 775 documented falls in this guide.
The falls are fed by Fall Fork of Clifty Creek. You'll find it in Bartholomew, Indiana. It is protected within Anderson Falls Nature Preserve / Bartholomew County Parks.
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. A short walk gets you to the viewpoint, so it works for most casual visitors and families. Base a visit out of Newbern, the closest town.
When to go: Spring. Like most waterfalls, Anderson Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
