Lake Russell sets the scene at Calhoun Falls, and the waterfalls themselves ask for a drive north. High Falls stays gentle, a mile and a half of walking. Great Falls runs 2.5 moderate miles with a couple hundred feet of up, dogs welcome. The big commitment is Upper Falls at 4.6 miles with 800 feet of climbing. If you land in downtown Greenville anyway, Reedy River Falls loops half a mile through the park there. Five falls in range from this corner of Savannah River country.
