오코니 카운티에서‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 천연기념물

Dick’s Creek Falls is a gem along the Bartram Trail—a refreshing cascade spilling into a clear pool, perfect for a dip on a warm day. Take a break, cool off, and listen to the rushing water.

If you're camping at Burrell’s Ford, King Creek Falls is a great way to start the day before getting back on the Foothills Trail. The short side trail leads to a 70-foot waterfall with a clear pool at the bottom—worth the quick detour. The path can be slick, especially after rain, so watch your step.

Big Bend Falls might not be the tallest around, but it's the largest single drop on the Chattooga River and a must-see along the Foothills Trail. This 30-foot cascade surges through a rocky chute, making for an impressive sight. The short detour is worth it for the great viewpoint.

Pigpen Falls is a short detour off the main trail. This two-tiered waterfall tumbles over rock ledges into shallow pools, offering a refreshing place to cool off. It’s not as tall as nearby King Creek Falls, but it’s much quieter—perfect for a quick break before continuing your hike. If you have some energy, you can extend your hike to Licklog Falls, just a short 10-minute walk from Pigpen Falls. To continue on the Foothills Trail, you’ll need to backtrack the same way.

The Issaqueena Falls are made of water coming from Cane Creek. It is about 100 feet tall, and was named after the legend of a Cherokee girl who went to the top of the falls with her boyfriend. There are different end to the story.

Cane Creek cascades beautifully over the rocks as Issaqueena Falls. There is gazebo nearby and you can take a hike along the Blue Ridge Railroad Historical Trail.
