Anna Ruby Falls
Located near Helen Georgia, this is an easily accessible trail that is paved and only 1 mile round trip. There is definitely some elevation gain, but it's a beautiful double waterfall.
Tallulah Gorge
Located in Tallulah Gorge State Park, not far from Helen Georgia is a hike down into the gorge to see these falls. The gorge is amazing and you get to walk across a suspension bridge on your hike. To get to the bottom requires 1,000 stairs down. It's about 2 miles roundtrip and you will need to get a permit because they limit the number of people allowed down.
DeSoto Falls
Located near Helen, GA, this hike is only a couple of miles roundtrip. It's a loop trail and considered the easier side of moderate. There is an upper and lower set of falls. This is actually the only trail (so far) where we have seen a bear while hiking. Thankfully it saw us also and took off up the mountain.
This is a short, easy hike located in Blairsville, Ga - less than 1/2 a mile roundtrip. It's the road in that will get you. It is recommended that only high clearance vehicles should make the trip in and I would agree. We went several years ago and drove a Ford Explorer at the time. We had to drive through water and drug in a spot on the way back out. The falls are great though!
