Waterfalls
It's always a joy to be along side a waterfall. The roar that builds as you get further along the trail, the first glimpse you gain through all the scattered trees, and the cool mist that hits your face as you finally get to take in the beauty right ...
The lengthy set of sturdy metal stairs to the top of these falls are SO memorable in and of itself! It's so much fun seeing how many stairs you can traverse in one go without stopping. As you sprint up each stair you quickly feel your legs respond to...
Amicalola Falls State Park
I enjoyed how close I was able to get to this waterfall. There are rocks beside it that place you RIGHT in front of these falls and as usual the sights and sounds are amazing. There's also a long bridge that spans across the fall.
High Falls Park (Alabama)
This is easily one of the most gorgeous waterfalls in the South. At 80 feet high this is also the largest waterfall in Rock Island State Park. There's a vast area of rocks seated in front of these falls and (for those willing) you're able to comforta...
Twin Falls (Tennessee)
One of the best parks in the state. This place offers a variety of trails and they are connected by a set of robust metal stairs which does really well to make this place feel even more expansive and fun to traverse. It has me think back to those met...
Cloudland Canyon State Park (Georgia)
This 136 foot waterfall looks even better in person. You're able to walk across the top portion of the falls if you'd like and this takes you right up to the edge of the fall. This one is simply stunning.
Burgess Falls State Park (Tennessee)
There's a very fun walk along the river to this fall. It's so calming as you walk along the path to the waterfall because the whole time you're passing through anywhere from ankle to almost knee deep waters. It's one of the few that's really crowded ...
Cummins Falls (Tennessee)
This park offers you not one, not two, but six waterfalls to take in. With over 20 miles of trails there's quite a bit to explore. There's a large picturesque suspension bridge that offers you a look over one of the waterways.
Tallulah Gorge State Park (Georgia)
Mountains
Unbeatable views to help put your life in perspective. They change with the seasons and they may make you work to get them, but that just makes them all the more enjoyable.
This place is truly unique. The rocky terrain that dominates this trail completely sets it apart from so many others and for that reason it makes for a surprisingly enjoyable experience. There's quite a bit to explore here.
Arabia Mountain (Georgia)
The view of the surrounding mountain ranges is quite stunning when you sit atop this wonderful trail. For the best views you'll want to make sure you go on a clear sunny day.
Blood Mountain (Georgia)
Sunset Rock offers such a beautiful view as you look out on the vast river and lush greenery before you. You pretty much park and you're granted an amazing view. You don't even have to work for this one.
Sunset Rock (Tennessee)
This is the highest point in Georgia so you can certainly expect some good views. The steep incline up to this mountain is really fun to experience. Most places don't offer anywhere near as much of an incline. If you're able, you'll definitely want t...
Brasstown Bald (Georgia)
Just one look and you can immediately see that this place is unlike any other in the south. For obvious reasons it draws comparisons to the Grand Canyon. For that reason it's sometimes called Georgia's "Little Grand Canyon". Go when this place is emp...
Providence Canyon State Park (Georgia)
