Tallulah Gorge State Park (Tallulah Falls, Georgia)


Tallulah Gorge State Park is a beautiful place with amazing views of the gorge, waterfalls, and beautiful scenery.



Tallulah Gorge is one of the largest canyons in the eastern part of the United States.




 A fairly easy hike to the rim allows spectacular views of the gorge’s waterfalls. The gorge is around 1000 feet deep and runs for 2 miles.



If you are up for the hike, there is a suspension bridge that is 80 feet above the canyon floor. We did not make it to the bridge, but you can view it from the rim.


Location:


338 Jane Hurt Yarn Drive
Tallulah Falls, GA 30573


Happy Travels!

Caesars Head State Park - South Carolina


Caesars Head State Park is located in Cleveland, South Carolina. The Park gets its name from a rock outcropping on top of the Blue Ridge cliff.



We visited this park towards the end of a long trip through the mountains of North Carolina. We were so glad to find a place with amazing views that didn’t require a 3 mile hike up steep terrain! :)



To get to the Caesars Head overlook does not require any hiking. It is only a few hundred feet from the parking area.



The overlook provides a great view of Table Rock Lake.



If you are up for a hike, the Raven Cliff Falls trail leads to 420-foot waterfall. A suspension bridge allows access to two overlooks to the falls. The trail is about 4 miles round trip. Maybe next time we will be up for the hike.



This park is a great place to visit, especially in the Fall. The views and fall foliage are beautiful! 



Happy Travels!
