Woodstock is metro Atlanta's northern edge, and the mountain water starts about an hour up the highway. Amicalola is the giant, 729 feet of falling water with a trail to the top that earns every step. Clay Creek Falls and Noontootla are half-mile legs for an easy afternoon. Cochrans Falls demands more, a rough climb to six hundred feet of water most visitors never see. High Falls loops a mile and a half. Nine falls inside the radius, dogs welcome throughout.
