About |
Near Tryon a small stream flows west to the Pacolet river. On this stream a series of cataracts fall approximately 75 feet down the mountain. The area was recognized for its scenic beauty many years ago and the Tryon Garden Club purchased a tract of 325 acres to preserve the area. Today it is a preserve and protects some of the more remarkable plants found in the areas mountains. The Club charges admission to the preserve which may be reached by traveling US Highway 176 some 5 1/2 miles west of Tryon. |
