A '''Waterfall''' has water falling from the northern cliff. In {{PG}}, {{CF}}, and {{NL}}, it is possible to have another waterfall elsewhere in the town. It will appear when the river meets the [[cliff]] in the center of [[town]]. The north waterfall is accompanied by the waterfall pond. Players cannot fish in the waterfall, but the waterfall pond is the only place that they can catch a [[char]]. In {{WW}}, there's sometimes a small rock jutting out of the waterfall's center. It does not serve any purpose and is there only for decoration. It was removed in {{CF}}.
+
A '''waterfall''' is a part of a [[river]] in the {{SER}}. Waterfalls appear either when a river spans multiple layers of a town or on the town's cliffside border where the river begins. The pool of water at the bottom of a waterfall is considered a separate body of water from the river for the purpose of fishing, having different spawn rates and some exclusive fish, particularly the [[char]].
  
===Cliff Waterfall===

==Appearances==
The player can throw the fishing rod from the northern hill near the waterfall. This will cause the bait to be on the lower part of the river. Fish can even be caught like this. If a fish is biting the bait near the waterfall, when it gets close to it the fish will simply swim away.

In every [[First generation|first-generation ''Animal Crossing'' game]], waterfalls appear where the river flows between layers of the town. The [[Char|large char]] can only be found at the waterfall; it can spawn at any place downstream of the waterfall in that [[acre]].
  
===Waterfall Pond===
+
In {{DnM}}, the large char is the only fish that can spawn at the waterfall, thus having a spawn rate of 100%. In {{DnM+}}, {{PG}}, and {{DnMe+}}, in addition to the large char, 26 other river fish can spawn at the waterfall alongside it from March to November, dropping the large char's spawn rate to between 8.33% and 11.11%.
The Waterfall Pond is the lake around the waterfall. In ''City Folk'', [[Pondskater]]s can be found here.

In {{WW}}, a waterfall appears on the northern cliffside border of the town. Sometimes a rock can appear in the middle of the waterfall. Like in previous games, the char can only be found at the waterfall.

In {{CF}}, waterfalls appear on the northern cliffside border of the town and where the river flows between layers of the town. Like in previous games, the char can only be found at the waterfall.

In {{NL}}, waterfalls appear on the eastern or western cliffside border of town and where the river meets the [[sea]]. However, only the upstream waterfall counts as one for the purpose of fish spawns, as the downstream waterfall leads directly into the sea. Like in previous games, the char can only be found at the waterfall.

===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
 +
In {{NH}}, due to the [[Island Designer]] [[NookPhone]] app, waterfalls can be created by the player. Unlike previous games, waterfall-exclusive fish spawn at the top of the waterfall (referred to as the "River (clifftop)" in the [[Critterpedia]]) rather than the bottom. In addition to all regular river fish, there are four fish that can only spawn at the river clifftop: the char, [[cherry salmon]], [[golden trout]], and [[stringfish]].

Waterfall

A waterfall in Animal Crossing: City Folk
Type Water
Generation probability Always

A waterfall is a part of a river in the Animal Crossing series. Waterfalls appear either when a river spans multiple layers of a town or on the town's cliffside border where the river begins. The pool of water at the bottom of a waterfall is considered a separate body of water from the river for the purpose of fishing, having different spawn rates and some exclusive fish, particularly the char.

Appearances[edit]

In the first-generation games[edit]

A waterfall in Doubutsu no Mori e+

In every first-generation Animal Crossing game, waterfalls appear where the river flows between layers of the town. The large char can only be found at the waterfall; it can spawn at any place downstream of the waterfall in that acre.

In Doubutsu no Mori, the large char is the only fish that can spawn at the waterfall, thus having a spawn rate of 100%. In Doubutsu no Mori+, Animal Crossing, and Doubutsu no Mori e+, in addition to the large char, 26 other river fish can spawn at the waterfall alongside it from March to November, dropping the large char's spawn rate to between 8.33% and 11.11%.

In Wild World[edit]

A waterfall in Animal Crossing: Wild World

In Animal Crossing: Wild World, a waterfall appears on the northern cliffside border of the town. Sometimes a rock can appear in the middle of the waterfall. Like in previous games, the char can only be found at the waterfall.

In City Folk[edit]

In Animal Crossing: City Folk, waterfalls appear on the northern cliffside border of the town and where the river flows between layers of the town. Like in previous games, the char can only be found at the waterfall.

In New Leaf[edit]

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, waterfalls appear on the eastern or western cliffside border of town and where the river meets the sea. However, only the upstream waterfall counts as one for the purpose of fish spawns, as the downstream waterfall leads directly into the sea. Like in previous games, the char can only be found at the waterfall.

In New Horizons[edit]

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, due to the Island Designer NookPhone app, waterfalls can be created by the player. Unlike previous games, waterfall-exclusive fish spawn at the top of the waterfall (referred to as the "River (clifftop)" in the Critterpedia) rather than the bottom. In addition to all regular river fish, there are four fish that can only spawn at the river clifftop: the char, cherry salmon, golden trout, and stringfish.

Waterfall fish[edit]

The following fish can only be found at the waterfall:
