De Sota Falls *

The Big Kahuna of Alabama waterfalls. It has a plunge of 104 ft.

Due to being nearly surrounded by private property it would be extremely hard to reach the bottom of the falls.

Desota Falls 11193 viewsAt 104 ft DeSota is Alabama's tallest waterfalls.
It once was used for electrical generation and the remains of the plant foundation and pipe cradle can be seen from the viewing area.
Any waterfaller would love to descend to the bottom of the falls but, private property prevents it.
