Raven Cliff Falls on Matthews Creek in Caesars Head State Park, Cleveland, Greenville County, South Carolina, is the king of South Carolina waterfalls and the tallest waterfall in South Carolina. It is one of the most scenic and photographed waterfalls in the state. Although the waterfall is described as having a 400 foot drop, topographic maps suggest a height between 320 and 350 feet
It was named for the ravens that breed in the high cliffs forming the falls. Over 150 species of ravens have been identified in this region.

There are two areas to view the falls. One is from the official viewing deck about a quarter of a mile across from the falls. This is where the Two RV Gypsies hiked to.
The other is from a rock outcrop near the start of the Dismal Trail, which offers a profile of the upper falls. The two RV Gypsies did not hike this trail, because it was too long of a trail.
