My entire family wanted to visit this trail so my kids were able to bring their bikes, I used my stroller, and my husband brought the dog. The suspension bridge is beautiful and very sturdy. The water is crystal clear and would be so much fun in summer. This is a great trail for aid afternoon stroll that doesn't take long at all. We will certainly visit again.

Wow! What a great State Park! Admission was only $5 per vehicle with multiple hiking trail options for people of all fitness levels as well as other amenities. Loved hiking down to the Hurricane Falls overlook and hiking the north and south rim trails and crossing the very cool suspension bridge. Most hikes involve lots of climbing and descending hundreds of stairs, but the entire stair system is very well constructed with multiple resting spots/benches, shaded pavilions, and free water bottle refill stations. Overlooks are gorgeous and trails are well-maintained. The views of the gorge and rapids/falls were all stunning. It can be very hot during mid-day during the summer but it is well worth a visit.

Recently my brother and I hiked the trail to Panther Creek Falls. We are both experienced hikers and have completed this trail in the past. If you like a trail with numerous challenges then this 7 mile adventure is for you. From the parking area you walk across Highway 441 where the hike begins. The trail is natural terrain and heavy erosion makes it very rough in places. It follows Panther creek downstream for most of the way as it winds through towering trees in the mostly hardwood forest. It is well marked so it is easy to follow. Along the way there are creeks to ford, lots of steps to climb, fallen trees to navigate, wooden bridges to cross, as well as massive rock outcrops that you pass under, over and around. Sections of the trail are extremely narrow and drop sharply and suddenly to the creek below (there are cable handrails in place to try and help keep hikers safe). Be prepared for a few elevation changes along the way. You will also pass multiple campsites just off the trail all located beside the creek. They are all first-come, first-camp so arrive early. As you approach the falls at the 3.5 mile mark you will cross an extremely large rock outcrop that descends to the base of Panther Creek falls. The trail here has been relocated and restored in the last several years making it much easier and safer than before. At the base of the large multi-tiered waterfall there is a sandy beach with huge fallen trees positioned so you can sit, relax and enjoy the view. The day we were there a group of folks were swimming and enjoying the cool water at the base of the falls. It’s a great resting spot before you start your return hike. We had a great time. Highly recommend. ...Parking... There are less than 10 parking spaces. When the lot is full people park along Highway 441. There is a $4.00 dollar day use charge. Restroom & picnics tables near the parking area. FYI... Chad Black Habersham County Emergency Services Director states that there has already been three “sick call” rescues since July 11th and six overall rescue operations staged since March (including a hiker who took a 30 foot fall from the trail onto a sand bar in the creek). This is a difficult trail. The high heat index and the humidity of the summer months only compound the difficulty. If you are not an experienced hiker or in good physical condition I would recommend you steer clear of this 7 mile hike at least until the fall months arrive.

This icon has been here for well over 30 years. Great views of the gorge and falls for free and a fun gift shop with super friendly staff worth patronizing even just for a snack!
