Waterfalls are among the many scenic stops at this park.

Amicalola, a Cherokee word meaning "tumbling waters," is an apt name for these 729-foot falls, which are the highest in Georgia.

An 8.5-mile trail leads from Amicalola Falls to Springer Mountain, the southern tip of the 2,150-mile Appalachian Trail.

With plenty of hiking trails, this park offers a great way to see Georgia's wildlife and natural beauty.

A lodge is available to guests who prefer hotel-type comforts over cottages and camping. A five-mile hike leads to more unique accommodations at the Len Foote Hike Inn.

The park offers a full range of educational programs and special events throughout the year.

There is no entry fee, but there is a fee for vehicle parking.
