## About

Plunging nearly 1,000 feet deep and stretching two miles across northeast Georgia, Tallulah Gorge is one of the most spectacular geological canyons in the eastern United States. Winter brings invigorating temperatures and unmatched sightlines down through the sheer quartzite walls to the roaring waterfalls below.

Visitors can hike the North and South Rim trails to accessible overlook platforms, or venture down 310 stairs to cross the swaying 200-foot suspension bridge hanging 80 feet above the churning whitewater of Hurricane Falls. The Jane Hurt Yarn Interpretive Center offers compelling exhibits on the gorge's rich wildlife and historic tightrope walkers.
