Amicalola Falls
The Amicalola River as it goes over the rim of Amicalola Falls, with the Etowah River Valley spreading out in the background. The river runs through the Chattahoochee National Forest in North Georgia. The falls near Dawsonville drop 729 feet, making it the tallest cascading waterfall east of the Mississippi. From the top of the falls, there's an 8-mile hiking trail to Springer Mountain, the southern end of the Appalachian Trail that runs 2,200 miles north to Mount Katahdin, Maine. gastateparks.org/lodges/amicalola/
