Another beautiful waterfall. You can see it from the viewing areas but if you want to see it up…read moreclose, you will have to go off-trail where people have made their own. Just know this can be difficult for some people and requires holding onto roots and pulling yourself up or slowly sliding down. Good shoes are definitely recommended. If you're not used to the area, the change in elevation might make it a little more difficult. Definitely bring water!! It would be nice at some point if they made steps down to the falls so more people could access it.

Issaqueena Falls was one of the last waterfalls we went to on the last Hiking Yelp Event hosted by…read moreRichard and Jamarcus which was also my first one. Not only my first Hiking Event but also my first time hiking. This time these guys took us to chase waterfalls to Walhalla, South Carolina. Definitely a great choice with beautiful views (which is why I live for, great views). The itinerary consisted on the following waterfalls: Station Cove Falls King Creek Falls Spoonauger Falls *Issaqueena Falls Yellow Branch Falls Issaqueena was one of my favorites. The hike isn't too long. You can literally hear the waterfall from the parking lot. There is a viewpoint where you can get a beautiful shots of the whole waterfall. I got some good ones of myself since I took my selfie stick with me that day. Right next to it, there's the trail to go down to the waterfall. This type of trail was more of a "rock climbing" in a sense and I freaking loved it. Issaqueena was definitely one of my favorites places we visited on the trip. A must see if you're in town. I think it's great for everyone including children. I didn't realize how easy hiking can be. There are indications and marks all over the place to help people follow the right way. My group was super experimented but I feel it would be totally fine for beginners too. No worries. I had so much fun on this event and I discovered what can be my new passion. Shoutout to Richard and his wife Dani for being so helpful and awesome. Every single person at the group was super nice too and willing to wait for me when i was getting too slow. LOL. Thanks y'all. Can't wait for the nexts events coming up. ESPAÑOL Issaqueena Falls fue una de las últimas cascadas a las que asistimos en el último evento de Yelp en Senderismo organizado por Richard y Jamarcus, que también fue el primero. No solo mi primer evento de senderismo, sino también mi primera vez. Esta vez, estos muchachos nos llevaron a cazar cascadas a Walhalla, Carolina del Sur. Definitivamente una gran elección con hermosas vistas (por lo que vivo por, excelentes vistas). El itinerario consistió en las siguientes cataratas: Estación Cove Falls King Creek Falls Spoonauger Falls * Issaqueena Falls Rama amarilla cae Issaqueena era una de mis favoritas. La caminata no es demasiado larga. Puedes literalmente y escuchar la cascada desde el estacionamiento. Hay un punto de vista donde se puede obtener una hermosa foto de toda la cascada. Conseguí algunos buenos de mí mismo desde que me llevé mi autofoto ese día. Justo al lado, hay un sendero para bajar a la cascada. Este tipo de sendero fue más bien una "escalada en roca" en cierto sentido y me encantó. Issaqueena fue definitivamente uno de mis lugares favoritos que visitamos en el viaje. Una visita obligada si estás en la ciudad. Creo que es genial para todos, incluidos los niños. No me di cuenta de lo fácil que puede ser el senderismo. Hay indicaciones y marcas por todo el lugar para ayudar a las personas a seguir el camino correcto. Mi grupo fue súper experimentado, pero creo que también estaría bien para los principiantes. Sin preocupaciones. Me divertí mucho en este evento y descubrí cuál puede ser mi nueva pasión. Grita a Richard y su esposa Dani por ser tan serviciales e increíbles. Cada persona del grupo también era súper agradable y estaba dispuesta a esperarme cuando me estaba volviendo demasiado lento. Jajaja Gracias a todos. No puedo esperar a los próximos eventos.

I have a hard time giving a natural and scenic area less than five stars. As the previous reviewer…read morementioned, this is not an easy hike. Nor is it particularly easy to get to the trailhead. But I've experienced far worse access roads and I've hiked more difficult trails. The USFS road to the trailhead is typical gravel. I took Overflow Creek Rd both ways and I believe that it is easier to traverse than is Hale Ridge Rd. Depending upon when you visit (i.e., the weather during the previous week or so), it could be pretty rough - rutted, muddy, etc. But it isn't horrible. The hike is rather strenuous. Make that...the hike OUT. It is all downhill - and rather steep - going in. Easy-peasy. But you know what that means for the return trip. Yep. It'll get your heart pounding. Personally, I would not bring my dog here. He loves waterfalls. But there are others that are more pet-friendly in terms of ruggedness. In my opinion, it would be easy for Fido to get hurt here. Same with young children. But if you have kids that are experienced in the outdoors, they'd probably do OK. As far as the waterfalls go, they don't get much better. Both are incredible. They're pretty close to one another. So when you get to the first one (Holcomb), the remaining trek to Ammons Creek Falls isn't bad. There are two options for hiking out. Between the two falls is a side trail that takes you back up and brings you out on the road a good distance away (1/4-1/2 mile?) from the parking area. Once you get to the road, it's pretty easy to get back to your car. I did this on a visit many years ago. Too long ago to comment on it. As I recall, it is more challenging than hiking out on the main trail. And the main trail is no cake walk. On my most-recent visit, I opted for the main trail as the spur seemed terribly overgrown. If you're in reasonably good shape, you'll have no problem. Just take your time and enjoy the scenery.

Holcomb Creek trail a relatively short hike with TWO waterfall payoffs! However, it has a few…read morechallenges, so let me get the negatives out of the way up front! A) The trail to the falls is a steep downhill hike, which is awesome going down, but a beast returning up. B) Parking is EXTREMELY limited and the gravel road to the trailhead is LONG and narrow, so cars coming from the opposite direction feel like a tight and heavily calculated squeeze. One side of the road is a sheer drop to certain doom or at the very least sever car damage! C) Parts of this hike feel like you are walking through a haunted forest. I mean, even on a bright sunny day (like today) there were two areas that were so dense with growth that it seemed to black out the sun. Add to that the gnarly twisted branches of the plants that made it look even creepier. I seriously got spooked since I was the only living human being on this trail! I'm no Scaredy Cat, but I found myself looking around for Orcs and grabbing a random dead tree branch as a staff like I were the gray wizard (or in my case the brown wizard). D) The trail past Holcomb Creek Falls to Ammon Falls is a steep uphill climb for about 1/4 of a mile. But putting those negatives aside, these are two HUGE waterfalls worthy of a scary walk through the woods. Holcomb Creek Falls is said to be 120' tall and Ammon Falls is probably around 65'. Both have spectacular straight-on unobstructed views, but Holcomb is best viewed from the rocks at its base. You can easily access this area by walking over the bridge viewing area and turning left. Climb a few large boulders and voilà, you will be standing at the stone feet of this mammoth. Ammon is best viewed from the observation deck which is in need of some repair. NOTES - Watch the missing deck board and chipped wood railing (unless you enjoy splinters in your hand). The sun is directly at the top of Holcomb Falls around 3:45pm, making picture taking difficult. DIRECTIONS: From Atlanta take I-985 which eventually turns into Hwy 441. Turn right off Hwy 441 onto Warwoman Road in Clayton, GA. Travel for about 10 miles and turn left onto Hales Ridge Road. Here you will see a brown sign indicating turn left for Holcomb Creek and Bartram Trail. Stay on this gravel road for about 7 miles until it dead ends @ Overflow Road. Trail is to the left of the intersection and marked with a large boulder that says Holcomb Creek Trail. Parking is to the right of the intersection. FINAL THOUGHTS Great short hike with excellent payoffs! But remember when hiking, what goes down must come back up! If you hike only this trail, your legs will be fine, but if this is your third trail of the day (like me), your legs will feel like linguini when your done. I'm gonna soak in my tub all night! PS - Other nearby trails to excellent waterfalls include Bartram Trail to Martin's Creek Falls & Becky Branch Falls, Dick's Creek Falls trailhead, Mud Creek Falls in Sky Valley and Glen Falls trail in Highlands, NC. 2018/52

Description was pecan-crusted chicken breast topped with lemon garlic butter. Chicken was breaded, flattened cutlet tasting of lemon. The cutlet was so flat it was hard to see/taste chicken breast and I couldn't tell if it was pecan crusted or just breaded like in a fast food restaurant. I ordered a side of spaghetti with lemon butter sauce. The spaghetti itself was fresh and tasty, wonderful on its own - should've ordered it without sauce. The pasta sat in a pool of lemon butter sauce that overwhelmed the spaghetti. The prices didn't deter me, I'm used to spending that much and more on a good meal. But that's the problem-for me, this wasn't a good meal. My husband had the lasagna and enjoyed it so maybe it was this one particular dish.

It's very secluded. Trail is well marked. The trail starts rather easy, then gets progressively more difficult. It's a strenuous 8+ miles round trip. Not good for anyone out of shape, not safe for young kids. Must wear hiking boots. Uneven terrain, some climbing required. Make sure you have about 8 hours of daylight left before starting the hike. Very beautiful path, lots of very old, very large trees. You'll hear nothing but the trees and the creek. Incredibly peaceful environment. The falls at the end of the path are beautiful. Dare to put your toes into the cold mountain water. Be sure to bring lots of water, rations, and rain gear. Bring basic First Aid.

Basically, the answer is to go early and not wait until the afternoon. I was hunting down some vintage cooking gear like cast iron and other assorted items that they just made better back in the day. There was a lot of promise, but very little delivery. I didn't see anything I was looking for. They had a lot of variety of the same items and they all looked in good shape I suppose. The prices though were clearly not a bargain. In fact, of the things I was looking for and know the competitive pricing on, I found nothing of value. The cast iron cookware was all abused or no name, or newer stuff and the pricing, while seemingly reasonable, were much too high for what you get in my opinion. If you have the time and want to be entertained and don't have something specific that you are looking for, this may be the place for you, but bring a credit card because you aren't picking up anything on pocket change.

He was very clear that he didn't care about the money and was more than fine to let us just wander along the outside. He was also very clear that we should not attempt to vandalize the buses or cars or else he would use us as target practice (and we believed him).

Parking passes are required for parking in the National Park and can be purchased from kiosks at the Overlook.
