Falls Dam

Falls Dam is nestled at the southern end of the Uwharrie National Forest OHV area just north of the flowing Yadkin River. Uwharrie National Forest OHV is home to a network of well-maintained off-roading trails offering options for beginners and experienced drivers alike. Pay a visit to the Eldorado Outpost just outside of the forest on Highway 109 to stock up on supplies and fuel and to purchase your OHV pass. If you plan your visit during autumn, you'll be treated to beautiful changing leaves and vibrant colors during your trail rides. Falls Dam and the Uwharrie National Forest are fun for individuals and families alike, especially if you choose to camp at the improved campgrounds like Badin Lake, where you can enjoy the water after a day on the trails.
