Grand Falls is a small block waterfall in Missouri, dropping 12 ft.
Its water comes from Shoal Creek. It lies in Newton, Missouri. The site is on public land managed by City of Joplin / public riverfront.
This is a roadside waterfall: visible from a road, parking area, or a walk of a few hundred feet. The nearest town is Joplin.
When to go: Year-round (highest in spring). Like most waterfalls, Grand 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.
