Waterfall Hike: Isaqueena Falls

Today we headed to South Carolina and had a great cookout with the family to celebrate the 4th. While we were there, we decided to sneak a short hike in and see one of the great waterfalls around Oconee State Park. There are tons of trails in that area and we will be sure to go back and try some of the others out. Today’s hike was Isaqueena Falls.

This is an AWESOME waterfall to go see! We LLLLOOOOOOVVVVVEEEEEDDD  this waterfall!!!!  The trail map lists this trail as 200 yards in to see the falls. Well, 200 yards in leads you to the observation deck with this view.

The view is nice, but you are viewing the waterfall through the trees from about 100 yards away. It’s pretty and those with any serious health issues I wouldn’t advise going any further.  However, if you are part mountain goat or just love impossible climbs, then there is a very STEEP dirt trail that leads straight to the base of the waterfall. The switchbacks are made out of rocks, dirt and roots. You need to be very careful here. Once you get to the waterfall though it’s totally worth it!  Enjoy :)
