Waterfalls

Amicalola Falls State Park & Lodge is an 829-acre Georgia state park located between Ellijay and Dahlonega in Dawsonville, Georgia. The park's name is derived from a Cherokee language word meaning "tumbling waters". The park is home to Amicalola Falls, a 729-foot waterfall that is the highest in Georgia.
A MUST DO if you have the time to plan a short half day trip. The highest waterfall in GA is simply majestic. Drive up to the top for amazing vistas and grab a bite at the state park’s restaurant.
