1/2 mile hike, mostly uphill to the falls. Fall Branch Falls is a popular attraction and does get quite busy so I'd recommend going first thing in the morning.

You can reach the falls by hiking down a short side trail from the combined Appalachian/Benton MacKaye Trail. These falls total about 50 feet in two distinct drops. A leisurely 30 minute hike to the falls is a gentle uphill on the way in, downhill on the way out, great for families. Bring a picnic to enjoy by the Noontootla Creek at the trailhead!
