Paulding's Waterfall~High Shoals Falls

The name of this waterfall is High Shoals Falls and is found in the heart of Paulding County. What is really cool about this waterfall is that it is so out of the way, and so unknown, that chances are you will have the place to yourself.  The rock face that the falls tumble over create a small amphitheater and climbing to the top of the falls from either side is relatively easy. The falls spill into a fairly shallow splash pool and give way to some small cascades just beyond the pool. Overall all I have to say this might be the most accessible waterfall I’ve ever been to.It is less than a 5 minute walk from your car! (Note: Don't make the same mistake we did and park at the cemetery on your right when you come in.  It is the one across the street.)
