Anna Ruby Falls Anna Ruby Falls Road, Sautee Nacoochee, GA 30571

"A must see when visiting the area. If you just want to visit the falls you can park and take an easy and quick walk to the observation decks. Beautiful views and photo ops. If you are feeling more adventurous, take Smith Trails and hike to the falls. It is not the easiest hike but so worth it. The views along the way are amazing and it brings you out right at the falls."

"We had a good time at Anna Ruby Falls. We first splurged the city of Helen, then ended our day at the Falls. The area is woodsy because it is in the oconee national forest. Be sure to look up their hours before you visit. The hours change according to the season. You can camp, hike, zip line, and canoe in the atea."

"We have beautiful weather for the walk up to the falls. The path is fully paved and certainly is a little steep at times. Lots of places to take breaks. It was certainly worth the hike!"

"Ever-changing beautiful work of God! There is something for everyone. I've been going here for 40 years. As I get older, it has become a little more difficult to walk the trail. It is still a hike you can make. Just pace yourself. There are rocks and benches you can rest on. I do n9t recommend a motorized scooter. It may be too steep in one area and there are steps to the final viewing platform. If the scooter has power and tires that will grip the pavement on an incline, then you may make it. The walk back down is not bad. Strollers may have to be parked at the very end. Personally, I let my toddlers walk the path. It gave them a work out. The path is safe. Bring cash for the entrance to the Georgia State Park ($5) and to the National Forrest ($5). You have to pass through the GA State Park to get to Anna Ruby Falls. There is a loop path that is ideal for those who have sensory disabilities or who cannot walk the steeper path. You will not see the waterfall but you can enjoy nature. Bring a picnic and drinks. Take a bottle if water with you and your camera on the hike up. Bathrooms, vending machines ($1 bills only), and a gift shop are available. I recommend going when it's cooler in the Fall."
