Leashed dogs are allowed at Amicalola Falls State Park, a pet-friendly natural space in Dawsonville, GA. The waterfall the park is named for is the main attraction, as it is 729 feet of beautiful cascading water, and the third tallest east of the Mississippi River. There are also many hiking trails you and Fido can explore. Pet parents should be aware that some of the trails leading to the falls include metal grate steps to make them non-slip for humans, however canines may find these challenging. Please keep your pup on a leash no longer than 6 feet and remember to clean up any messes they leave behind.

Appalachian trail to falls
Great trail for the pups, leads directly up to the falls. Reeses has hip dysplasia and she had little issue with the incline, we were more winded. There are several spots where you can stop and walk right up to the stream so the pups can get some fresh cold water to cool down. Note there are 175 steps to get up to the falls. Some dogs had issues with the stairs as they are like grates and might hurt their paws if going too fast.
