#highshoalsfalls #blueholefalls #Hiawassee

Two for one deal! High Shoals Falls and Blue Hole Falls with swimming hole are on the same trail just off Indian Grave Gap Road in Hiawassee, Georgia. This 2.4 mile out and back trail features multiple campsites before and after the creek crossing at about the half way mark going in. We did not see blazes marking the trail, and the first left turn towards Blue Hole Falls can be easily missed. I captured both left hand turns to each of the falls in the video so you know what to watch for.

Parking around the trailhead is along the dirt road. There is a shallow creek crossing prior to the trailhead but we made it across with no problem in our minivan.

There are no bathrooms, no trashcans, and no cell signal. The trail is downhill going into the falls, so expect a climb coming back out.

This trail is popular on holidays and weekends, so I would recommend visiting in the middle of the week.

Check out our other playlist, “Yaya and Mimi on the AT”, where my sister and I hike the Appalachian Trail to honor our mother’s memory. She once said, "One day I'll hike the Appalachian Trail" but her one day never came. She was taken too soon by Early Onset Alzheimer's. Now we hike the trail for her. Hopefully along the way we can advocate for women to live their dreams, and encourage good mental health by accomplishing hard things. Remember: Fit body, strong mind, and open heart! Happy Hiking!
