Explore Dry Falls, North Carolina
Dry Falls is located off of Hwy. 64, which has been designated as the Mountain Waters Scenic Byway, and the road does not disappoint. Hwy. 64 is a two lane road which hugs the northern side of Cullasaja Gorge, which has been carved by the Cullasaja River. Besides Dry Falls, Hwy. 64 leads you past several other waterfalls: Cullasaja Falls- which is only visible from the road; Quarry Falls- more ...
Explore Cullasaja Falls
This is an awesome waterfall that offers views from several different spots along the road as well as a quick hike down to the base!
The small pull-off area is located towards the top of the falls. There isn't much space (3 maybe 4 cars at a time), but there are additional pull-off areas further down the road. There are several places from the pull-off where you can snap some pictures or, if yo...
Photograph and Explore Bridal Veil Falls
Bridal Veil Falls is located directly off of the road and is about a 100 feet tall in total. The falls makes for a great place to take pictures under the water falls. The falls itself is small and flows constant all year long getting to the bottom of the falls is not recommended because it is dangerous and slippery. You can cross the road to see the falls from the other side of the guard rail b...
Hike to Yellow Mountain Fire Tower via Cloud Catcher Lane
Yellow Mountain Fire Tower features some of the best views, looking out over both the Northern Georgia mountains as well as seeing the flat-lands of South Carolina past the mountain ranges. This hike is pretty well known for its 12-mile round trip trek, starting in Cashiers, NC, however, there's a faster way to get there if you're looking for something a little shorter.
Following the location l...
Hike to Rabun Bald
Starting at the trailhead you begin by following the yellow blazes. The trail isn't well marked so keep an eye out for the blazes you see. The trailhead starts at the dead end of Kelsey Mountain Trail. The path immediately starts to incline and doesn't stop. A few minutes in you will come to a fork in the trail. We chose the right path and that took us straight there. At 0.8 of a mile in you r...
Hike the Whiteside Mountain Loop
Whiteside Mountain is simply breathtaking, there is no way around it. Views of the mountain from the South expose its sheer granite face, which runs almost its entire length East-to-West. However, the views of the mountain are just the beginning, as this hike climbs to higher heights than just about all of the surrounding mountains within sight. Do not get fooled by the impressive prominence...
