Diggins Falls is a pictuesque 60-foot waterfall located on a tributary in the upper Charlies Creek valley, near Diggins Knob. It lies about 300 feet from the confluence with Charlies Creek, and there potentially may be another undocumented waterfall nearby on Charlies Creek itself. Although Diggins Falls lies off-trail, visitors can access the area using an old logging road that parallels Charlies Creek from the end of FR 72 (a spur from Charlies Creek Road). A short bushwhack from the old roadbed up this tributary is needed to view the falls. In Greg Ford's Facebook album documenting this waterfall, it is identified as Fascination Falls.
To learn about more waterfalls in the Clayton area, see chapter 9 in Mark Ozboyd's "Waterfalls of Georgia" guidebook.
