Sunderland Falls

Sources: “200 Hikeable Waterfalls of Ohio” By Tina Karle

At 40 feet tall, this is one of the tallest, if not the tallest waterfall in all of Western Ohio.  A small recess cave has formed behind the waterfall and the waterfall tumbles into a short rocky gorge. It’s not apparent if this waterfall is in a park or not, but it seems that public access is permitted.
