A series of rhododendron-lined waterfalls on Jonathan Run in Ohiopyle State Park, with the lower falls plunging up to about 15 feet over sandstone. The falls are reached on the Jonathan Run Trail, which parallels the run for nearly two miles.
Its 15 ft drop is taller than about 7% of the 775 waterfalls we track.
The falls are fed by Jonathan Run. It lies in Fayette, Pennsylvania. The site is on public land managed by Pennsylvania DCNR (Ohiopyle State Park).
This is a moderate hike waterfall: a longer day hike, roughly one to several miles each way. Reaching it takes a moderate walk, so budget time and pack water before you set out. The nearest town is Ohiopyle.
When to go: spring. Water volume swings with the seasons here, strongest after snowmelt or rain and lowest in late summer, so check recent streamflow before you go.
