Who would've thought this pretty waterfall lies just one mile from the Atlanta perimeter? Henderson Park Falls is a scenic stairstepping waterfall about 25 feet high, located along an unnamed creek feeding into Lake Erin at Tucker's Henderson Park. The waterfall lies in a small watershed and is best seen during wet weather, for it's often a weak trickle in drier times. The waterfall's multiple picturesque tiers afford good spots to enjoy its shallow cascading waters.


Henderson Park Falls can be reached via an easy 0.5-mile hike along the park's trail system. The waterfall is located at the far end of the Yellow Trail, which forms a side trail along the White Trail encircling Lake Erin. The waterfall lies right at the edge of the park boundary, and a house stands higher up the hillside, overlooking the falls through the trees.
