The northwestern corner of South Carolina is a hotbed of great trails that lead to spectacular places. Hiking is a big deal in South Carolina. We’re blessed to have such diversity between the hiking in the mountains and lowlands in the Palmetto State.
Flickr/MarksPhotoTravels One trail that offers both a mountain setting and a relatively level terrain with no steep climbs is the trail to Twin Falls in Pickens County.
Flickr/David Ellis Twin Falls is known locally by several other names including Reedy Cove Falls, Eastatoe Falls and Rock Falls.
Yelp/Richard R The first, Reedy Cove Falls is probably because the trail getting to the falls runs parallel to Reedy Cove Creek and offers a beautiful hike through the preserve to get to the falls.

Yelp/Richard R Secondly, the name Eastatoe Falls may originate from the fact that these spectacular falls are located in what’s called the Eastatoe Valley.
Flickr/Lucid Nightmare And the third name, Rock Falls, has no obvious origin except that the two falls are a majestic 75-feet high and they drop, or cascade, over granite.
