Tallulah Gorge Nature Photos

Along the beautiful scenic highway US 441, on the border between Habersham and Rabun counties you find the marvelous gorge Native Americans called Tallulah.

The splendor that made the once glorious town flourish is still evident in the gorge. What once made the gorge most visited tourist attraction in the Southeast still draws thousands as the falls on the Tallulah River prove to be quite amazing to those who love the outdoors, so beautiful they were nicknamed “Niagara of the South.”

The granite walls of Tallulah fall perpendicular to the land above forming steep cliffs that are thrilling to behold.

The roar of the falls into the canyon can be heard for miles.
The cliffs of Tallulah at one point drop 1200 feet to the bottom of the gorge.

The home of many endangered species including persistent trillium (the only place it is found), the gorge was the perfect place to release peregrine falcons, also endangered.

 Trails surround the Tallulah Gorge allowing you to take in all of its scenic wonders. For more information check out these wonderful links:

WOW! These pictures are absolutely beautiful! I can only imagine how awesome the sound effects of the falls would be. Thanks for showing them to us, Boyd. :)

On another note, I wanted to thank you for your kind and caring words on the recent passing of my ex-husband, father to four of my kids. We all appreciated it very much.

This place is really beautiful and amazing! My cousins had a football camp there two years ago, and I had the pleasure of visiting them along with hiking along the mountain. If you ever get a chance to see this place, take advantage of that great opportunity!!! Also, thanks really for posting these great and inspiring photos Mr. Greene!

Hey Alex,

Thank you for dropping by for a browse.

I love Tallulah Gorge and would love to hike along the mountain.

I appreciate the compliment.

I wish my football camp had been in Tallulah instead of south Georgia!!!!
