A roaring 60-foot waterfall located in a spectacular rock gorge along the Jacks River, Jacks River Falls is breathtaking even in the driest of droughts. The waterfall is broadly considered to be the keystone of the Cohutta Wilderness, and its most popular destination. Jacks River Falls can be reached via several different hiking trails including the Beech Bottom Trail, the Rice Camp Trail, and the Jacks River Trail. The falls is among the most remote major cataracts in the state. No matter which route you take, expect a minimum hike of 9 miles roundtrip.
