Overall Run Falls
The tallest waterfall in Shenandoah National Park, about 28 meters high. A rock ledge at the top overlooks the entire gorge.
Overall Run Falls drops about 28 meters and is the tallest waterfall in Shenandoah National Park. Hikers often start from the Matthews Arm Campground (Mile 22.1). The round trip is about 10 km and takes 3 to 4 hours. From the rock ledge at the top, you can look down over the whole gorge and the distant Shenandoah Valley.
Water flow varies greatly by season. Spring is the most impressive. By late summer or early autumn it may be reduced to a trickle, so check with the visitor center before you set out.
