Amicalola Falls, Chattahoochee National Forest Amicalola Creek falling over Amicalola Falls next to the staircases leading to the top of the fall. At 729 feet high, Amicalola Falls is the highest waterfall in Georgia. The area was originally inhabited by the Cherokee Indians and in that language the name means "tumbling waters". It was made a part of the 829 acre state park in 1911, although it was not developed until the 1950's. It is also considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Georgia. It is a very popular scenic spot in Georgia and is often quite crowded. The falls themselves are accesible via a steep pathway from the base of the falls that also included many stair cases.
