Tallulah Gorge Sliding Rock Trail

A journey through the 2-mile long, 1,000-foot-deep crevice of the impressive Tallulah Gorge is a must-see for thrill-seekers. You will scramble to the base of a cascading waterfall and cross a heart-palpitating suspension bridge that sways with every step. It might sound strenuous, but at least you will have the refreshing waters of the Tallulah River pools to cool off in once you arrive. Permits are required for this trial, and only 100 are issued per day on a first-come-first-serve basis (so be prepared to wake up early and stand in line at the visitor center). But it is worth it to hike one of the least explored places in the Tallulah Gorge State Park.
