Twin Falls

Twin Falls is a 48-foot segmented in Arkansas, on Shop Creek.

It's fullest after rain, and flow can drop off during dry spells — plan around recent weather.

Plungeworthy rates Twin Falls 7/10 — worth the drive. The score weighs its scale, how confidently it's mapped, and its character.

Three strands of water dropping 48 feet off one ledge into a shared pool — locals call it Triple Falls, maps say Twin Falls, and both names mean this one: the falls near Camp Orr on the Buffalo, not the identically-named Twin Falls in the Richland Creek Wilderness.

The left two-thirds is spring-fed, so unlike most Ozark falls it runs year-round rather than only after rain.

It sits in a small side-creek valley on public Buffalo National River land beside Camp Orr, an active Boy Scout camp that is not open to the public — the falls trail is, the camp isn't.

The spring-fed strands keep it going all year; full width shows after rain.

Spring and fall are prime; the access road turns ugly in wet or icy conditions.

The rough road filters out the crowds that pack Hemmed-In-Hollow and Lost Valley — short easy trail, quiet falls.
