418 Amicalola Falls Lodge Dr
Dawsonville, GA 30534
It s easy to see why Amiclola Falls State Park is one of Georgia s most popular state parks. Amicalola, a Cherokee Indian word meaning tumbling waters, is an appropriate name for these 729-foot falls - the tallest cascading waterfall east of the Mississippi River. An 8.5 mile approach trail leads from the park to Springer Mountain, the southern end of the 2,135-mile Appalachian Trail. However, numerous other trails are available for shorter journeys. A beautiful lodge at the top of the mountain is popular with guests who prefer hotel-type comforts, while a five-mile hike leads to more remote accommodations at the Len Foote Hike Inn.

Amicalola Falls is the beginning to the Appalachian Trail in NE Georgia. The leaves are in peak color.
