It is about a 90 minute scenic drive to Tallulah gorge but well worth it!! is two miles long and nearly 1,000 feet deep. You can hike rim trails to several overlooks, or apply for a day permit to hike to the gorge floor (only 100 per day, so be sure to reserve early. Not available during water releases). There is also a suspension bridge that sways 80 feet above the rocky bottom, providing spectacular views of the river and waterfalls. A must see for the whole family!!
