Thistelthwaite Falls
Voted as one of the top waterfalls in the state of Indiana by Indiana Office of Tourism Development. In the early 1800's, Timothy Thistlethwaite blasted a new channel in the West Fork of the Whitewater River to direct the water over this rock formation and provide more waterpower to his nearby sawmill. The falls is an excellent sight to SEARCH FOR ANCIENT FOSSILS among the rock formations along the river. This beautiful waterfall is located just south of Waterfall Road near Springwood Park and is a short hike.
