The visitor center, rim trails, and the falls trails (down and up lots of stairs) were all excellent. Great views and sights from all different heights. Very unique place.

Spent two nights at Tallulah Gorge State Park. Hammock camped at back-country site High Bluff #2 with my 20yo son. Highs/Lows Friday and Saturday night were 48-25 & 65-35. We checked in Friday after lunch and setup camp then at 7:30 hiked back to the visitors center for the the full moon guided hike. Watched the moon rise over the high bluff and illuminate the valley. Saturday was beautiful the park was bustling. We did the North and South Rim trail (the down & up stairs is a workout). We finished Saturday with a late hike on the High Bluff Trail. There is a portion of the High Bluff trail that was weather or possibly fire damaged otherwise it was a great wrap up of our trekking. The day visitors must have thought my son and I looked and smelled great as we popped in and out of camp. We had a blast. The Gorge is a natural beauty.

Talulah Gorge State Park offers something for everyone. There are fantastic views of the Talulah Gorge, waterfalls and even Tallulah Lake. There are hiking trails that area easy to walk. Hiking trails for the die-hard hiker, leading in to the bottom of the Gorge. If history is your thing the exhibits in the visitor center are interesting and worth your time to see. There is access to two lakes, Tugalo and Tallulah. Both are gorgeous and perfect for canoeing, kayaking, fishing and Summertime swimming. The Tallulah Sortline Trail offers an incredible walking trail that is almost all gentle terrain. That is pretty tough to find in the mountains! There is a great campground with full hook ups or tent camping. Overall, Tallulah Gorge is one the nicest State Parks I have ever visited. Enjoy!

We visited labor day weekend and the weather was great! Sunny blue skies and not too hot. Unfortunately we didn't arrive early enough to get a 1 of the only 100 permits given per day to go down to the gorge, wish we could've :(. But we made the best of it and enjoyed the incredible views from different areas of the park. The stairs up and down were a bit of a workout and wouldn't be something I'd recommend for really small children as they'd have to be carried. It was pretty busy since it was a holiday weekend so we are planning to come back on a regular weekend some other time to get down to the gorge but all in all I would recommend visiting it is a beautiful sight to see.

As previously reviewed, Tallulah Gorge State Park has been and will continue to be one my favorite vacation destinations, but if you plan on hiking in the bottom of the Gorge, you need to read this before you travel:Tallulah Gorge is owned and operated by Georgia Power, however, the park itself is managed by the Georgia State Park system. Access to the rim trails (north and south rims, staircase, and suspension bridge) is available almost all of the time. Access to the Gorge floor trail, however, is strictly controlled by the park system and is frequently closed to hikers. Some examples of why the Gorge floor trail might be closed include the following:1) It is raining today, therefore the rocks are wet and too slippery for hikers.2) It rained yesterday, and the rocks are still too wet and slippery for hikers.3) It rained 3 days ago, and temperatures dropped below freezing, causing ice to form, and the ice has not melted. Therefore the rocks are too slippery for hikers.4) It is raining nearby, or it has rained nearby, or it might rain nearby, so it might rain here. Therefore the trail is too dangerous for hikers.5) It is too cold today. Hikers must cross the river twice in order to complete the trail, and getting wet in cold weather is too dangerous for hikers.6) Rain or cold weather is in the forecast, therefore the floor trail is too dangerous for hikers.7) Only 100 floor permits are issued per day, and all 100 have already been issued.8) Georgia Power is doing some work on the dam at Tallulah Falls Lake. The trail cannot open while work is being performed on the dam or the floodgates.9) Georgia Power is doing some work in the bottom of the Gorge. The trail cannot open while work is being performed in the bottom of the Gorge.10) Search and Rescue teams are practicing in the Gorge today. The trail cannot open while practice rescues are being performed in the bottom of the Gorge.11) A water release is scheduled for the Gorge. During water releases (either for aesthetic purposes or whitewater rafting), the Gorge floor trail is closed for hiking.12) The Chief Park Ranger is not here at the moment, and until he issues the OK, the trail cannot open to hikers.13) Etc., etc., etc.....You get the idea. Best advice is too check the park website for any scheduled Gorge floor trail closings and then try to plan your trip when the weather is warm and dry. You can also call the park office on the day of your planned visit to determine is floor trail passes are being issued. It's very important to have the required permit, as you can be ticketed and fined for getting caught without one.Also, plan on getting wet if you want to hike the floor trail. I recommend taking your socks and shoes off before you negotiate the river crossings and have a waterproof bag with which to transport your gear in while crossing the river. I always wear a bathing suit unless it's really cold outside, in which case I have a change of clothes in my pack. If you need to purchase some basic gear, water, snacks, etc., there is a Wal-Mart in Clayton (12 miles) or Cornelia (20 miles). Have Fun!

Spent a wonderful winters day exploring this magnificent gorge. $5 parking and then a short walk to the Interpretive Centre which is well set out and very informative. Map and cameras in hand we set out on the North trail. All the trails are wide and well sign posted. After visiting overlook 1, 1A and Inspiration Point it's back down to overlooks 2 and 3 and then down the stairs to the suspension bridge across the gorge and then more stairs down to Hurricane falls. The stairs are steep but well constructed with handrails and rest points (seats) along the way. After Hurricane Falls we crossed back over the suspension bridge and up the 300 odd stairs. Followed the path to overlook 4 and 5 and then crossed the bridge over the top of the dam wall to the south track to talk in the spectacular views from overlooks 6-10. Would definitely come back at other times of the year to take in the changing colours of the forest.

We have driven by this place several times in the past and with no planned destination on our part, we decided to stop and check out the park and the water falls on this trip. We were not disappointed with the beauty of the park or waterfalls. Some of the spots weren't open for hikers due to weather conditions, so we will be back to see them. Some of the trials are easily accessible for strollers and wheelchairs while others require walking up and down stairs (a lot of them), but the views from the over looks are absolutely stunning and beautiful.

We went again, this time in January. So beautiful at all different times of the years. Both times we were there we weren't able to get a permit to hike down into the gorge but only to the bridge. We still had a great time and enjoyed the views.

This is a beautiful place to visit. There are several trails you can walk and if you think you can take the exercise go to the bottom of the steps and then but the t shirt once you have made it back up.

This is a great place to see some wonderful waterfalls. Some of the hike was tiring do to the steps on coming back up but well worth the exercise. Take plenty of water. Also remember to get a free permit if you want to go down to the bottom first!

Get a permit to hike down into the gorge. Then cross the river and slide down Bridal Veil Falls. Great summer thing with the kids but wear very good shoes and be in decent shape, some rock crawling required.

How can one improve on what has taken mother nature thousands of years to create? Beautiful views. We walked all the way to the bottom of Hurricane Falls, and my legs were shaking a bit when I reached the bottom. Climbing up the +500 steps to get back to the top was challenging, and I consider myself to be in average shape. Just pace yourself, take water to drink (yes, even in the winter) and enjoy your hike!

Tallulah Gorge State Park is a must see! The interpretive center is one of the best I've seen!! The views of the gorge from the multiple view points are breathtaking. The climb down to the suspension bridge is over 600 steps so the climb back up is no joke! Take your time and it's not too bad!

This is such a lovely place, everywhere you turn is something to see, NON COMMERCIAL! The shops are Mom and Pop places, which I love, and not a big company chain of any sort in sight. So if you arrive after hours, remember, you are left to your own devices and come prepared. We found this place completely by accident on our way to Gatlinburg from Atlanta (Airport), and I am so glad we did. We didn't have enough time here, so we took photos and bought books and searched the Internet (at a later date) and found all sorts of wonderful history. I suggest you do the research first, it will add to the already special experience you will have here.

Education, history and beautiful someplace I would recommend to anyone. If you are a nature lover it's a plus.
