It is a 5 mile hike to Raven Cliff Falls. We would like to do the hike in the morning and have lunch/shop in Helen in the afternoon and then drive back. We would leave Helen around 3pm to return home.

Ravens Cliff Falls are a wonder to behold, and the hike in is almost equally as stunning. The path begins as a wide road near the junction of Dodd and Bear Den Creek. Trout fishing abounds here, and it is unusual to see any of the available fishing areas along the creeks empty on a weekend even in the middle of winter. The first 100 yards of the path is essentially a service road for these spots. The trail closely follows Dodd Creek up to the falls. On the path several additional waterfalls add to the pleasure of this trek.
