We'll meet at the Visitor Center and see the famous arch at the Approach Trail before beginning the STRENUOUS staircase to the top of Amicalola Falls.
A series of staircases lead up to the falls viewpoint, which is the most challenging part of the hike. Amicalola Falls stands an impressive 729 feet and cascades down rock ledges.
While climbing the stairs, each person is to go at their own pace without the pressure or expectation to make it to the top. We'll start together and then meet back at the bottom.
If you only want to do a portion of the "hike" it is 100% fine. The climb to the top is considered Strenuous. There are several places to stop and take photos along the way.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND BRINGING YOUR DOG.
THE SIDE TRAIL TO THE TOP IS CLOSED, SO WE WILL BE TAKING THE STAIRS UP AND THEN BACK DOWN.
Bring snacks, but afterwards we can get lunch nearby in town.
YOU MUST DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH OF THE TRAIL. YOU ARE ALSO FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF AND IF YOU BRING YOUR DOG OR KIDS.
DO NOT BE A NO SHOW!!!!!!!! IF YOU SIGN UP BUT CAN NOT ATTEND, PLEASE MARK YOURSELF AS CANCEL.
If anyone has any questions, please feel free to use the group chat.
