Mississippi promises so much natural beauty all year around, putting spending time outdoors at the top of many of our weekly to do lists. When we need to exchange the busyness of everyday life with tranquility, we just need to seek out one of our local parks, preferably one with a gushing waterfall. Next time you need some time away from it all, set your GPS to take you to the tallest waterfall in Mississippi.
Embrace the tranquility of nature and the sheer natural beauty of Mississippi’s tallest waterfall when you visit Dunn’s Falls Park in Enterprise.
