is actually two different cascades. The first falls is a steep slide about
30 feet high. The second falls is about 60 feet high. |
Directions:
Take US 19 and 129 south from Blairsville, Georgia for about 11 miles.
Turn left onto Helton Creek Road, the first road past the entrance to
Vogel State Park. Travel 2.2 miles to the parking area on the right. The
trail begins on the right just before the parking area. The first mile of
this road is paved, fairly narrow, and surrounded by summer homes. The
rest of the road is gravel.
