Panther Creek Falls

Last weekend we went on our first hike of the season (in GA) with our friends Michelle and Kelly. We went to Panther Creek Falls about an hour north of Athens. It was great to be outside and moving again! Most of the hike was fairly easy, there were a few steep ups and downs but nothing too rigorous. The best part of the hike is that the trail follows a river and after a 3.5 mile hike you are at a beautiful waterfall!







We stayed at the bottom of the falls to refuel with lunch, and to relax and enjoy the water. Unfortunately, the water was FREEZING...so we only got our feet wet. While relaxing Michelle and Kelly enjoyed a little nap in their hammock...



I don't think they knew I took this picture... :)

After some down time, we headed back up the trail and walked the 3.5 miles back to our car. We all agreed that it would be fun to do this hike again, preferably when we can enjoy a little swimming and maybe even spend a night camping by the river.
