Bear Branch Falls is a multi-tier, stairstepping waterfall in the upper reaches of Bear Branch near Lake Rabun. The total height of the waterfall is about 60 feet, cascading in several stairstep drops. Bear Branch Falls is most scenic after heavy rain. Bear Gap Road crosses Bear Branch south of Minnehaha Falls, from where it's a short 400-foot bushwhack upstream to the waterfall.
