Anna Ruby Falls
A rare twin waterfall where two separate creeks plunge side by side into a misty forest pool in Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains.
About this spectacle
Anna Ruby Falls is a striking double waterfall tucked within the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest in the Blue Ridge Mountains of north Georgia. Two separate streams — York Creek and Curtis Creek — tumble down adjacent rocky chutes before merging at the base into Smith Creek. The falls roar with energy after spring rains and winter snowmelt, filling the surrounding hemlock and hardwood forest with a cool, misty atmosphere. A short, paved trail leads visitors through a lush streamside corridor alive with wildflowers in spring and vivid foliage in autumn. The sound of the combined cascade is immersive, and the mist drifts gently across the viewing area. The verdant canyon feels secluded despite being relatively accessible, making it a rewarding stop in Georgia's mountain country.
