The Elakala Falls
are a series of four waterfalls of Shays Run as it descends into the Blackwater Canyon in West
Virginia. They are within Blackwater Falls State Park and are quite
popular among photographers, with the ease of access for the first waterfall,
and the relatively low traffic of the other waterfalls in the series. The first of the series of waterfalls
is 35 feet in height and is easily accessible from park trails. It is the
second most popular waterfall in the park.
From the official Elakala trail there is a bridge over the top of the
first waterfall offering easy access and views. Source
