Union County Georgia Hiking Trails
Helton
Creek Falls Trail
|
|
Length: 0.3 miles
Rating: Easy
This short but great hike to two stunningly beautiful waterfalls, among
the cool and refreshing woodlands, is a sight not to be missed.
This short trail descends to the first waterfall then climbs beside the
creek to the second and larger waterfall. The rocks are deceptively
slippery around these falls. Exercise caution.

Directions:
Take US 19 and 129 south from Blairsville for about 11 miles. Turn left
onto Helton Creek Road, the first road past the entrance to Vogel State
Park. Travel 2.2 miles to the parking area on the right. The trail begins
on the right just before the parking area. The first mile of this road is
paved, fairly narrow, and surrounded by summer homes. The rest of the road
is gravel.
