Announcing Waterfall Keepers of North Carolina, the only organization dedicated to the state’s resplendent falling water.

Waterfalls are among the few natural wonders that excite all five of our senses at once. We feel the spray against our skin. We hear the calming sound of the falling water. We smell and taste the moisture in the air. And, of course, we see the sublime beauty. Waterfalls give us so much.

Let’s pick up the trash, clear the trails, and protect the plants and animals that live in the waterfall environment. Let’s help make everyone’s visit safe and rewarding. Let’s get the kids involved. Let’s use the healing power of waterfalls to help people who are down.

WKNC has created the perfect way for waterfall lovers to make a difference. Become a Keeper. Keepers pledge to visit “their” waterfall four times a year to pick up trash and report on trail conditions when they visit.

The first annual Waterfall Sweep of North Carolina will be on March 20, 2021. Volunteers will visit waterfalls across the state to clean up litter and perform minor trail maintenance.
