There are lots of scenic places to explore in the Cohutta Wilderness, but this 3.5-mile trail is one of the lushest, most scenic hikes for waterfall lovers (which could explain why it is always so popular). The trail leads you through a wooded forest before ascending up the mountains. You can simply follow the flow of Panther Creek through the valley until you hear the faint sound of cascading falls nearby. Soon, you will reach a clearing surrounding by towering trees where the multi-tiered waterfalls are.
