Helen, a Bavarian Alps replica town in Appalachian Georgia, is home to an Oktoberfest for the ages, overflowing with two-liter beer glasses and Germany's famous bratwursts. To recover from the festivities, the savviest make their way to Cedar Creek Luxury Cabins on the edge of the Chattahoochee National Forest.

Many hiking trails bordered by scenic mountain streams, waterfalls and other scenic vistas abound throughout this 9,115-acre natural reserve.
This hike is about 5 miles round trip. I would call it moderate. Nice waterfall at the end with multiple good places for rest and pictures on the way. Parking is limited on weekends. Restrooms are available at the parking lot. $5 fee for the park.

This is about a 4.5 mile hike to the top of Yonah Mountain. The path is clear but has roots and some rocks. At the halfway point up the mountain, there is a grassy clearing for your first good view. After that, the path gets much steeper. At the top, there are many outcrops you can sit and enjoy views. It was a little hard finding the trailhead, but the parking lot is on a short gravel road off Chambers road. No fee to park and pit toilets. I would say this hike is moderate to strenuous, but very doable. Take lots of water.

My brother and I recently took a day trip and visited Dukes Creek Falls. Located just off Richard Russell scenic highway less than 6 miles north of Helen, Ga. the Dukes Creek Trail is a moderate 2 mile hike out and back through a beautiful, mountain stream-filled forest. The first segment of the trail is paved and accessible, and allows all hikers to catch a glimpse of the falls from the trail’s upper viewing deck. As you descend the trail is not paved but is well maintained. If you have mobility issues be aware that there are some stairsteps on this section of the trail. As you proceed the trail moves alongside a stream where you will pass several large, cascading waterfalls that provide multiple photo opportunities. When you reach the falls, there are several large wooden viewing platforms that offer stunning views of the dramatic, multi-tiered, 150-foot-tall drop of Dukes Creek Falls. The day we visited we saw lots of families with kids and dogs. Be aware the parking area is very small so get there early. There is a $4.00 per car charge for a day use pass.

I am from florida and always like to play courses with elevation changes as I don't get that at home. This was a great course that featured great views and elevation changes. Played with a nice retired couple that live there and they gave me some great course tips for a first timer. Definitely came in handy because many holes you cannot see the green from the tee box. Loved 15 with the huge drop to the green at the bottom. Course was in good condition except for the bunkers which were a little ragged. Only thing that would be nice would be a tee box in between the gold and the blue which would have been good for my handicap.

Twisty mountain road with great viewing areas along the route. Done in Oct and you get double win of fall colors. Just you and nature - the way it should be. No distractions- life at it’s best.
