Lake Trahlyta Spillway, Natural cascade in Vogel State Park, Georgia, United States.
The Lake Trahlyta Spillway flows continuously over stone steps, creating a 50-foot cascade surrounded by dense forest within Vogel State Park boundaries.
The waterfall received its name from Trahlyta, a Cherokee maiden whose burial site remains at Stonepile Gap, several miles from the current park location.
The spillway represents a connection between modern recreational spaces and Cherokee heritage, serving as a reminder of the original inhabitants of these lands.
Visitors can access the waterfall through a 1.06-mile loop trail starting from the main parking area, featuring minimal elevation gain of 95 feet.
The waterfall maintains a consistent flow throughout the year as it releases water from Lake Trahlyta into Wolf Creek through engineered stone formations.
