Brasstown Falls - OVERNIGHT CAMPING NO LONGER PERMITTED

There is no overnight camping anymore. A nice trail has been constructed, with 3 overlooks of the falls and wooden ladders/steps in some areas. The trail is easy and short, my guess is that it’s a mile long. The first falls may be a popular swimming spot in the summer and there is fishing somewhere around the trail.

The trail is now easy to find and maps will take you directly to it. Beautiful area but we were looking for dispersed camping sites and longer hikes so we spent less than an hour here!

Getting to this site was easier said than done. Be sure not to miss your turnoff before a VERY small bridge. It is a primitive site, no bathrooms or services here, only waterfalls and beauty. The peaceful surrender of this site already has me wanting to go back already. There are several falls, with the biggest being at the northern most end. Start there and work your way down with the water, it makes for a spectacular day hiking and swimming.
