12. Burney Falls, California

Located inside the verdant confines of McArthur Burney Falls Memorial State Park, Burney Fall sends gushing water, originating from an almost invisible underground spring. The 129 foot waterfalls have perpetual flow amounting to a staggering 100 million gallons per day, despite really dry summers.
A stunning natural marvel! Agreed, there are tons of other natural gems in California. However, if you wish to give the hackneyed touristy spots a miss and look for something more offbeat and natural, this sure wins the day.
