cascading waterfalls
Tiered plunging waters
Cascading waterfalls are waterfalls that descend in a series of steps or stages rather than plunging straight down in a single drop.
The water flows over multiple rock ledges or terraces, creating a staircase effect.
The phrase is somewhat redundant since cascade itself means to fall in stages, but it emphasizes the stepped, flowing quality of the descent: We hiked to see the cascading waterfalls in the national park.
