A roughly 50-foot cascade where Whiting River drops through a rocky chasm on the Connecticut-Massachusetts border, reached by a short trail in Campbell Falls State Park Reserve.
Before you go
Waterfalls are hazardous by nature — wet rock, cold water, and unstable edges — and flow varies enormously with season and recent rain. Trail figures here describe the route as documented, not conditions today. Check Campbell Falls State Park Reserve (Connecticut DEEP) for closures and current conditions, and confirm land status before setting out.

Frequently Asked Questions
Campbell Falls drops about 50 feet. That makes it the 408th-tallest documented waterfall in this inventory, taller than roughly 42% of the falls listed here. Height comes from published land-manager and survey records, not from our own measurement.
The Campbell Falls Trail reaches it about 1.4 miles (out-and-back) with roughly 187 feet of elevation gain, rated moderate. The nearest town is Norfolk. That describes the route as documented, not conditions on the day — check with Campbell Falls State Park Reserve (Connecticut DEEP) for closures and current conditions.
Spring through fall. Waterfall flow swings enormously with snowmelt and recent rain, so a fall that roars in spring can be a trickle by late summer.
