In the "Hiking Epic Trails" series, we find the coolest landmarks on each trail leading to a waterfall and give them a name. However, some of them already have a name. In order, the landmarks in this video are Overlook 3, Overlook 2, Suspension Bridge, Overlook 8, Overlook 9, Seat In A Cave, Overlook 10, Hurricane Falls.
The Tallulah Gorge is a gorge formed by the Tallulah River cutting through the Tallulah Dome rock formation. The gorge is approximately 2 miles (3 km) long and almost 1,000 feet (300 m) deep.[1] The Tallulah Gorge is located next to the town of Tallulah Falls, Georgia. Tallulah Gorge State Park protects much of the gorge and its waterfalls. The gorge is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Georgia.[2]
Just above the falls is Tallulah Falls Lake, created in 1913 by a hydroelectric dam built by Georgia Railway and Power (now Georgia Power) in order to run Atlanta's streetcars. The dam still collects and redirects most of the water via a 2,032 m tunnel sluice or penstock around the falls to an electricity generation station downstream that is 608 feet (185 m) lower than the lake, except for a few days each year. The days when water is released are very popular for recreation, such as kayaking and whitewater rafting.[3]

I was there last weekend. Saw the tunnel down on the river too. I would love to know what that was for at one time.

This place is amazing in the rain. Gorge access is closed then, but there is such dense fog floating above all the landmarks, it's truly otherworldly. Walking across the suspension bridge in the rain and wind is a wild experience. Also, just in case y'all were unaware, this trail loops. So if you hit the falls/gorge access at the halfway point and then make your way up the second set of stairs to overlooks 8, 9, 10; you can take a right instead of a left go to where the highway is, walk along that bridge and then get back on the trail on the other side. There's also a section where you can go under that bridge and get a great view of the dam; or cross over to Tallulah lake. There are actually some incredible views y'all missed out on not following the loop. Think you actually made it harder on yourselves too. Also, also that was not Oceana falls at Tallulah Gorge, just as a heads up. Oceana Falls is the more flat sloped falls that follows along the Sliding Rock trail. It kind of looks like Bridal Veil Falls, but Bridal Veil Falls isn't actually visible from the Rim. Great stuff. Hard to find quality content around Georgia hiking, glad I stumbled across y'all.

Snap, you're right about oceana falls I just edited it out. Also, yea you're right, we're planning on doing the loop and the gorge floor next time! Thank you so much for the advice!

[@sway_onthetrail]

For sure brotha! Thanks for producing quality and inspiring content showcasing the beauty in the nature and towns around here. I think what y'all are trying to do with this channel, inspire people to go live life instead of vicariously through social media (if they're able to,) is great!

[@buildthedream77]

@@sway_onthetrail Thank you so much. I truly appreciate that!

[@JonathanLeclaire]

Is it possible to swim At the base of gouge? I coming soon and I run with a crew cliff jumper any chance of it ?

[@coachacola3755]

Probably, I saw a recent photo of hikers in the gorge on Google Earth.
