Lower Wilks Creek Falls is a sizable 50-foot waterfall located on the lower reaches of Wilks Creek, which is a major tributary of the upper Chattahoochee River. The waterfall lies just under a mile downstream from the smaller middle and upper falls on Wilks Creek, both of which are reached far more easily. Acessing Lower Wilks Creek Falls entails a long, strenuous bushwhack from the vicinity of Chattahoochee River Road.
