Polk County Trails: Vaughn Creek Greenway

Siller's Falls is a small waterfall on Vaughn Creek along the Vaughn Creek Greenway, maintained by the Town of Tryon. A short trail added in 2017 leads from the picnic shelter on New Market Road to the falls. You can also walk the 0.8-mile greenway, which passes the falls on the left soon after the start and ends at a large tunnel.
