A Deep River mill built Ramseur, and the waterfall list here stays short at two. Lanier Falls does the work: Raven Rock State Park, where the Cape Fear cuts through, five miles round trip at a moderate grade with roughly 300 feet of climbing, dog friendly. Great Falls sits on the page as a name only. The Piedmont sheds elevation gently around here, so the tall water lives a couple hours west in the mountains.

Located at 35.7371°N, -79.6543°W
