Waterfall Info: This is the second set of waterfalls on Little Skeenah Creek, dropping through a laurel thicket located at a point marked 'Falls' on the topographic map. The name references the local voting precinct of Skeniah, perhaps a spelling variation of Skeenah.

Height: 30 Feet
Type: Slide (Multi-Tier)
County: Fannin
Access Info: From Little Skeenah Creek Falls, bushwhack your way upstream roughly 350 feet. It is steep at times, so be careful close to the water. You will pass several scenic cascades along the way. As you approach, you will see a taller drop than any of the cascades you have passed since Little Skeenah Creek Falls, and this is Skeniah Falls. From here, you can press onward and see a couple more small waterfalls and cascades further upstream at 34.77814, -84.13531 and 34.77817, -84.13522. These two cascades combined are about 12-15 feet tall.
