Tallulah Gorge Campground

The Great Outdoors

You have seen a little bit of the canyon, but there’s more to Tallulah Gorge State Park than your immediate surroundings - a lot more. Believe it or not, but a century ago, this gorge and its stunning nature rivaled the Niagara Falls, and when you hike to Hurricane, Oceana, or Bridal Veil Falls and are met with the cascades of water, you’ll understand why. On your way there, you might stumble upon rare species like the monkey-faced orchid and green salamander, and at the Interpretive Center, you can learn even more about the area, watch a dramatic film, and buy some snacks, walking sticks, and books.The trails around your motorhome rental at Tallulah Gorge Campground aren’t too shabby, either - quite the opposite. Since there are great paths to walk all around the area, you’ve already encountered a few, but did you know that the famous Southern Highroads Trail, lined with so much art, culture, and food, can be accessed here? As if that wasn’t enough, you can also hike the gorgeous and renown Appalachian Trail and walk in the footsteps of those who lived here in a time gone by, also close to your RV rental in Tallulah Falls.You’ve seen enough nature for now, right? No? Then you can always drive the short distance to Tugaloo Lake and park your camper rental there for a lovely, relaxing, fun day by the water. You can make use of the boat ramp, or you can run into the clear water in this serene, pristine lake and go for a swim - just watch out for the anglers. Enjoy the fantastic views from the overlook, have a yummy picnic, and make use of the restrooms should you need to - which are wheelchair-friendly, by the way.
