The waterfalls are actually two separate falls.Īt the bottom is Angel Panther Falls. Not the best we’ve seen in North Georgia and certainly not the worst. But other than that it was a pretty straight shot on the trail and back with not many options for getting sidetracked or lost if that’s your sort of thing. The base of the falls is only a few inches deep which would be perfect if you wanted a safe place for the kids to play. Because this trail was so short and compact and the stream flowing down so narrow and shallow, there weren’t many options for us to get out and play. When we take hikes, and in particular hikes to waterfalls, we love having the ability to jump off and do some exploring on side trails or to get out and go swimming in spots. The one category that we dinged it for was The Options for Exploring. There is a sign marking the spot but it’s a man made stone structure that people used to use for refrigeration for things like eggs and milk back in the early 1900s. One cool spot on the way up is on the left hand side. We would imagine that during the summer that it probably gets crowded with people looking for a break from the lake or those who are riding through on the scenic Lake Rabun drive. We went on the weekend, out of season (late Fall) and we only passed one small group on the hike. At less than a mile there and a mile back, this is the perfect distance in which to kill a short amount of time. But all in all, this is an all ages hike any time of the year. If they are younger than 2 years old, they’ll probably need to be carried for a stretch. There is very little incline or elevation climb on the entire hike and is more than doable for young children. ![]() The waterfalls are located on a relatively short 1.7 mile round trip hike. This is a seasonal campground so if it’s closed, there are a few spots on the side of the road across from Tame Turkey Road or you can park down at Lake Rabun Beach Recreation Area and make the short walk back up to the trail. You can park in the Lake Rabun Campground. To access the trail, travel along Lake Rabun Road in Lakemont. Angel Falls is located in Lake Rabun Georgia and is actually a series of two waterfalls. ![]()
