Rocky Falls, situated in Winona, MO, within the Ozark National Scenic Riverways, offers visitors a unique glimpse into the earth's ancient past. The stunning reddish-brown rhyolite porphyry rock, formed over 1.5 billion years ago, showcases the remnants of molten rock that once flowed onto the earth's surface, creating a mesmerizing sight of nature's turbulent history.
This geological wonder features a captivating stream that has eroded softer dolomite, resulting in a narrow valley where the stream is confined by the harder rhyolite rock, creating a picturesque "shut in." As visitors explore Rocky Falls year-round, they can enjoy amenities such as walking trails, bathrooms, picnic tables, and fire grills, all set against the backdrop of blooming redbuds in the springtime.
