2014 ALPINE HELEN GEORGIA
2014 ALPINE HELEN GEORGIA
WELCOME TO HELEN!
How Did Helen Become What It Is Today?
Helen, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains on the Chattahoochee River, is a re-creation of an alpine village complete with
cobblestone alleys and old-world towers. This Northeast Georgia village has a rich history linked to the Cherokee Indians and
their burial mounds as well as early settlers who arrived in the
early 1900s to mine for gold and cut virgin timber for a thriving
lumber industry.
Now celebrating its 42nd year as
a mountain community with a touch
of Bavaria, Helen’s evolution into an
alpine village began in 1968 when a
group of local businessmen met to
discuss ways to revitalize their town.

The Alpine Helen-White County Convention & Visitors Bureau has
completed this guide to aid in your discovery of the many natural attractions and back road treasures located in this area of the Northeast Georgia
mountains. We hope you will enjoy your visit. Please stop by the Helen
Welcome Center when you arrive. Our well-trained staff will assist you
with your visit to Helen, White County, or Northeast Georgia. Call the
Helen Welcome Center at 1-800-858-8027, or contact us through our
website at helenga.org or on your hand held device at helenga.mobi
They approached a nearby
artist friend who had been
stationed in Germany. He
sketched the buildings, added gingerbread trim, details
and colors to the buildings,
giving an Alpine look to
the entire town. In January
1969, business owners and local carpenters began turning ideas
into reality and all downtown stores were renovated. Facades of
buildings were painted with scenes of Bavaria and North Georgia,mirroring the migration of early settlers. In 2002 alone, $1.2
million was spent on improvements in the downtown area.
Helen has accomplished much; it
has created a new town and industry,
providing jobs for more people and
boosting the economy of the entire area.
Helen also commemorates its historic past when the early settlers came to
this remote area. A village with mountain heritage and a touch of Bavaria, Helen has created a unique
experience for its visitor.
So, this is the story of Helen, the miracle of a small, remote
mountain community that revitalized itself in various ways
throughout several centuries and that today hosts nearly 2 million visitors each year.
What does Helen have to Offer?
Just northeast of Atlanta, off
Interstate 985-365, and southwest
of Greenville, SC, off Interstate 85,
Helen provides visitors a place to relax, away from the hustle and bustle
of city life. More than 200 specialty
and import shops, restaurants and
over 1,100 quality rooms are located in Helen. Outside of town,
cabins and chalets are available, many with cozy fireplaces in
secluded settings.
Visitors can enjoy river tubing, horseback riding, golf,
canoeing, fishing,mountain biking or hiking to one of the many
majestic waterfalls close by. Helen hosts one of the nation’s
longest Oktoberfests each year, bringing in thousands of revelers.
What is Helen’s Climate Like?
Temperatures in the North Georgia Mountains vary greatly.
Summertime temperatures range from 90 degrees F during the
day to 70 degrees F during the night, while winter temperatures
range from 60 degrees F during the day to a low of 20 degrees
F at night. Usually, the cool mountain breezes make the climate
very comfortable for everyone.

WATERFALLS &
COVERED BRIDGES
Dukes Creek Falls – (Chattooga R.D.)Dukes Creek Trail (.8
mile in length) winds its way into Dukes Creek Gorge where
it dead ends across from the 300-foot Dukes Creek Falls. The
area offers scenic beauty and excellent gold panning opportunities. Directions: Take GA 75 north from Helen for 1.5 miles.
Turn left on 75 Alternate and go 2.3 miles to the Russell-Brasstown Scenic Byway. Turn right and go two miles to the Dukes
Creek Falls Recreation Area.
Horse Trough Falls – (Chattooga R.D.)Horse Trough Falls
Trail (.4 mile in length) leads to the beautiful Horse Trough
Falls and is an excellent trail for novice hikers. Directions: Take
GA75 north from Helen for eight miles to Unicoi Gap. Turn
left onto F.S. Road 44 (Wilkes Creek Road). Go 5.4 miles to
a sharp curve and take the right fork. Go 0.2 mile, ford the
stream and follow colored blazes on the trees.
Mill Creek Falls – The waterfall on Ground Hog Branch drops
about 150 feet where it combines with the main Mill Creek.
The combined streams plunge another estimated 150 feet, ending in a series of rapids, which cascade down the Mill Creek
Gorge. Directions: From Hiawassee, take U.S. 76 east. Turn
right on GA Highway 75. Travel 3.5 miles. Turn left on Mill
Creek Road (F.S. Road 26)for 2.5 miles. The road crosses Mill
Creek 1.5 miles from the pavement. Parking is available in the
camping area on the right and at the pull-outs on the left and
right side of the road. Hike through the primitive camping area
and follow the west side of Mill Creek downstream.
Raven Cliff Falls – (Chattooga R.D.)These falls are one of the
most unusual in the North Georgia area because the water flows
through a split in the face of a solid rock outcropping to the
ground 100 feet below. Behind the split, the water drops approximately 60 feet and then rushes through the rock face and
drops 20 feet into a deep pool. The water then cascades 20 more
feet to Dodd Creek. Three other waterfalls can be found on
Dodd Creek ~ the largest is downstream from Raven Cliff Falls
and measures 70 feet. The area offers excellent opportunities for
day-hiking, however, there are no facilities of any type provided. Visitors are encouraged to exercise extreme caution in this
underdeveloped area. Directions: Take GA 75 N from Helen
for 1.5 miles. Turn left on 75 Alternate and travel 2.3 miles to
the Russell-Brasstown Scenic Byway. Turn right and travel 2.8
miles to the trail head and parking area.
41
WATERFALLS &
COVERED BRIDGES
Sautee Covered Bridge It is also known as Helen Bridge, Sautee
Bridge, Nacoochee Bridge and Chickamauga Bridge and crosses Chickamauga Creek. Proclaimed Georgia’s smallest covered bridge, it was featured in the film “I’d Climb the Highest
Mountain.” Will Pardue built it in 1895 in the Queen Post design with a length of 36.8 feet and a width of 11 feet 10 inches.
There is parking and a picnic area as well as a Historic Marker.
Directions: Take GA 75 north of Cleveland for 7 miles, turn
right onto GA 17 for roughly 2 miles, then left on GA 255 for
2 miles near the town of Sautee.
Anna Ruby Falls – Spectacular Anna Ruby Falls is located in
the heart of the Chattahoochee National Forest. The quiet coolness of the area is broken only by the thundering rush of water
flowing over the rugged cliff face.
Anna Ruby Falls marks the junction of Curtis and York
Creeks. Both creeks begin on Tray Mountain and are fed by
underground springs, rain and snow. Curtis
Creek drops 153 feet and York Creek drops
50 feet to form the twin waterfalls known as
Anna Ruby Falls.
From the falls, Smith Creek tumbles downhill to Unicoi Lake and then to the Chattahoochee River. Its journey continues south,
eventually joining the Appalachicola River in
Florida and ending its 550-mile journey in
the Gulf of Mexico.
A paved 0.4-mile footpath leads from the
parking lot to the base of the falls. Walking
is easy to moderate and will take approximately 30 minutes to
complete. Benches are provided along the way. Walking shoes
are recommended since the trail can be wet and slippery.
The Lion’s Eye Trail gives people who are blind or have visual impairments the opportunity to experience the environment
along Smith Creek. Braille signs interpret various features of
the area. Ambitious hikers will find the 4.6-mile Smith Creek
Trail a challenge. This longer trail leads from the base of Anna
Ruby Falls to Unicoi State Park. In addition to hiking opportunities, the area also offers 11 picnic sites with tables and grills.
Who was Anna Ruby? After the Civil War the land surrounding and including Anna Ruby Falls was purchased by
Colonel John H. “Captain”Nichols. Colonel Nichols named the
twin waterfalls in honor of his daughter, his sole surviving family member after the death of his wife and two infant sons.
Please call 706-878-1448 for hours of operation and further
