Tallulah Gorge State Park, State park and heritage site in Rabun County, Georgia, United States.

The park features a 2-mile-long gorge reaching depths of 1,000 feet, with multiple waterfalls cascading through the carved rock formations.

The area holds archaeological evidence of Native American settlements, with the name Tallulah derived from Cherokee words meaning rocky waters.

The Tallulah River and gorge serve as outdoor classrooms for geology students and researchers studying the formation of Appalachian landscapes.

The park provides 20 miles of trails, a suspension bridge crossing the gorge, and specialized permits for accessing the gorge floor.

The gorge experiences scheduled water releases from the dam, transforming the usually calm river into class IV-V rapids several times annually.
