Black Mountain Falls

Chattahoochee National Forest

Stephens County
Toccoa, GA

GPS Location:

34.66929, -83.34755

Waterfall Height:

25 feet

This nice 25-foot waterfall lies within a small off-trail gorge along an unnamed tributary draining into Panther Creek from the northwest slopes of Black Mountain. From Black Mountain Road (FR 139), an old logging road follows the ridge to the north of the unnamed creek. After 0.7 mile, the roadbed turns sharply right and heads downhill. Keep going straight and bushwhack down a steep ridge for about 0.1 mile to the waterfall.
