A world of waterfalls

Anna Ruby Falls

These incredible waterfalls are sequestered in the Chattahoochee National Forest but easily accessible after a short hike. Cascades of water splash from a range of heights between 50 and a 150 feet. A fascinating visitors centre in Unicoi State Park tells you all about their formation and biology.

Moccasin Creek Park

Snuggled between the lovely Lake Burton and the Blue Ridge Mountain, Moccasin Creek Park's 3000 acres are the ideal spot for skiing the mountain range, exploring their waterfalls, or trout fishing in the warmer months. There are a number of mountain biking trails around and restaurants on hand for when you've worked up an appetite.

Hemlock Falls Trail

Near Moccasin Creek, you'll find the stunning Hemlock Falls. In fact, Hemlock is an entire valley ribboned with falls that flow into the Lake. Your hike takes you through verdant woodland to discover serene pools and frothy falls. At just over a mile long, the brevity of the hike makes it ideal for families.

Minnehaha Falls

Another hike that's friendly to families is Minnehaha where the towering falls flow down boulders like steps through emerald forest. The hike takes its name from the Native American word for waterfall, not chuckle. Rhododendrons line the ascending trail to the falls which are audible from some distance away.

High Shoals Falls Trail

Located amongst the profusion of evergreens at Vogel State Park, High Shoals Falls rush loudly down the hillside. Along the trail, you'll also come upon Blue Hole Falls, which bounce erratically over protuberant rock formations.
