Hike Summary: A short hike around the gorge. Awesome views of the gorge from the various overlooks. Georgia Power was releasing water so there were no permits to the gorge floor however the hike around the gorge and the stairs to the bottom of the gorge were breathe taking. One can see all the overlooks without doing the staircase which would make it an easy trail however the distance would be about 3 miles. Fall would be a great time to visit.
