River Falls is a 20-foot waterfall on the Conecuh River in Covington County, Alabama, the namesake of the town of River Falls.
The falls
The World Waterfall Database marks the waterfall Confirmed, with a 20-foot total height and no separate tallest-drop or drop-count figure beyond the single drop on record. Current official sources describe a regulated river and a dam nearby rather than confirming a surviving natural waterfall.
Getting there
PowerSouth operates Point A Dam on the Conecuh River near the falls. Nearby Point A Park, run by a separate operator, has parking, restrooms, a beach, a dock, a pier and a boat launch. No official public route to the waterfall itself, trail distance, accessibility, current fee, hours or permits have been documented.
When to go
PowerSouth runs Point A as a run-of-river project, so levels vary with wet or dry inflow and there is no posted generation schedule.
On site
PowerSouth says entry into its recreational waters is at the visitor's own risk and asks that hazards be reported.
History and name
River Falls took its name from the nearby Conecuh River waterfall and grew up around the Horseshoe Lumber Company in the late nineteenth century. Point A Dam began operating in 1926, was destroyed in the 1929 flood, and was rebuilt.
