SEE
THE FALLS
Colditz Cove is
a 165-acre natural area located approximately 2 miles east of Allardt,
Tennessee in Fentress County. Its most impressive feature is Northrup
Falls, which plunges more than 60 feet over a protruding rock ledge
into a scenic, narrow, gorge along Big Branch Creek. The waterfall
is named for the family who settled here and operated a mill above
the falls in the 1800's. These high cliffs and "rock houses"
(cave-like overhangs) at the falls and along the creek gorge, were
once used by cliff-dwelling Woodland Indians over 3,000 years ago
for shelter while hunting.
