A roughly 25-foot waterfall over Blackhand sandstone in Knox County, reached by a short trail from the parking area, with part of the walkway paved and accessible. The site protects a rare disjunct boreal plant community.
Its 25 ft drop is taller than about 16% of the 775 waterfalls we track.
Honey Run Falls sits on Honey Run. It lies in Knox, Ohio. The site is on public land managed by Knox County Park District.
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. The walk in is brief — comfortable shoes are usually all you need. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 0.4 miles round trip. The nearest town is Howard.
When to go: Spring; winter for ice formations. Flow usually peaks after snowmelt and heavy rain and tapers through late summer — a quick look at recent streamflow and the managing agency's conditions page can save a wasted trip.
