Daffodils – Day 3 – Tulullah Falls

7 March 2017

The daffodil excursion is found in the previous blog, so scroll down for it.  Thanks to James Holloway, a colleague from Broward College, for suggesting I take a drive to Tulullah Falls, about a two hour drive from the gardens.

Talk about nostalgia! The gps took me through back country roads similar to what I knew as a kid and some of the houses along the way even looked familiar even though I was new to this area.

I pulled into the park around two and got a map for the north and south rim trails, a three mile loop that takes you down to the bottom of the gorge and then across and up the other side. The gorge can drop over nine hundred feet in places from the rim.

The trail on the north rim begins at the interpretive center and your first overlook is of L’eau d’Or Falls and Hawthorne Pool.

From there you walk down 531 steps to the swinging bridge over the gorge.

You are now on the south rim trail and you descend more stairs for a view of Tempesta Falls.

If you head east, you can get a view of Hurricane Falls and a glimpse of Oceana Falls.

You then retrace your steps and cross back over to the north rim across the dam over the river and back to the interpretive center.

In all, you manage 1,099 steps of which 568 were up from the bottom of the gorge to the top of the north rim.  Interestingly, the park ranger rated this as “difficult” while the ranger at Amicolola Falls rated their 600 plus as “strenuous”.

This was a wonderful hike.  I returned about 3:30 pm and headed back to Jasper.  I had dinner at an Asian restaurant and guess what my fortune cookie said?
