Bridal Veil

The first falls of the Little River, Bridal Veil is probably the most unique. First, it drops off an overhanging ledge which allows visitors to walk underneath (as shown in Last of the Mohicans). Then the water sheets down a long, shallow inclined plane of granite before tumbling into the pool below. Bridal Veil is located about 800' from the DuPont State Forest boundary.
