By using The Waterfall Map (thewaterfallmap.com) you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Accuracy of information

Waterfall locations, heights, park memberships, trail conditions, and related data are sourced from public databases (OpenStreetMap, USGS GNIS, Wikidata, National Park Service) and are refreshed monthly. This data may be incomplete, out of date, or incorrect. We make no warranty — express or implied — as to the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any particular purpose of any information on this site.

Trail, safety, and closure information is especially time-sensitive. Always check with the relevant park authority, ranger station, or land-management agency before visiting a waterfall. Conditions (water levels, trail closures, access restrictions) can change without notice and may not be reflected here.

Visiting waterfalls involves inherent risks, including slippery terrain, fast-moving water, flash floods, and remote locations. You assume all risk associated with any outdoor activity undertaken based on information found on this site. The Waterfall Map is not liable for injury, death, property damage, or any other loss arising from use of information on this site.
