Peer Into a 16-Story Pit Lined With Waterfalls and Plant Life
If you’re already in Anniston, Alabama, you really should stop by Fackler, which is just two hours away. This unassuming town is home to one of the coolest places to visit in the U.S. — the Neversink Pit. The sinkhole-cave combo is 162 feet deep, measuring 40 feet wide at its mouth and double that at its floor. The walls of the Neversink Pit are lined with waterfalls, ferns and endangered plant species in the spring, making it a nature lover’s dream. If you’re not brave enough to enter the pit, you can at the very least take some pretty impressive pictures at the top.
