Tumbler's Falls

la Cascada del Volatinero

Tumbler's Falls is a small riverlands settlement on the banks of the Blackwater Rush, near Stone Septon.

Its place in history comes not from anything of its own, but from having served as an army's meeting point and the scene of a massacre during the War of the Five Kings.

Chapter 1

The fleet that came down the river

Books only

At Tumbler's Falls, Tywin Lannister met Mace Tyrell, each bringing his own strength. Tyrell supplied a fleet of barges that carried the host down the Blackwater Rush.

They landed half a day's ride from King's Landing and from there struck at Stannis Baratheon's rear.

Chapter 2

The Mad Huntsman's cages

Books only

A band of northmen loyal to Robb Stark came to Tumbler's Falls looking for Jaime Lannister. They did not find him, and turned instead to looting, rape, and murder, leaving eight dead in the village.

The Mad Huntsman caught them and brought them to Stone Septon, where they were locked in cages until they died.
