INSIDERS' GUIDE TO AMICALOLA FALLS STATE PARK

Our cabin was decked on back with only forested views in front. The Talbott Brothers on Spotify were reminding me to stay Young and the rushing sound of Amicalola Falls as it tumbled down over its lip in the distance relaxed the stress out of me.

Amicalola Falls State Park: An Adventure Lodge

Amicalola Falls State Park is located within Chattahoochee National Forest between Ellijay and Dahlonega in Dawsonville, Georgia.

Where is Amicalola Falls State Park in Georgia?

It is just over an hour north of Atlanta, two hours southeast of Chattanooga, TN, and three hours south of Asheville, NC.

See the Beauty of Amicalola Fall

Amicalola means “Tumbling Waters” in Cherokee, which is exactly what your senses will experience in this Georgia State Park. At 729 ft high, it is the highest waterfall in Georgia.

Amicalola Falls Trail (from the bottom to the top)

The ultimate is to hike from the bottom of Amicalola Falls (starting from the Visitor Center at the park’s entrance) right to the top where the lodge is located.

The Top of the Falls to the Middle

This will involve those 425 steps down – remembering that you’ll need to come back up. I’m of reasonable fitness and it took me about five minutes and didn’t feel as bad as it looks.
