Dukes Creek Falls Trail is a series of three switchbacks that lead down to falls on Davis Creek at its confluence with Dukes Creek. There are water cascades on Dukes Creek. It drops about 150 feet down a sheer granite canyon and into Dukes Creek. The area offers scenic beauty and excellent gold panning opportunities. There is a slippery-rock water slide. An observation deck affords an excellent view of the falls from the parking area.

The first section of the trail is wheelchair accessible. While the pathway is mostly level, it descends more than 400 feet on the half-mile walk.

After the second switch the path now narrows considerably. At the falls three more observation decks have been built into a boardwalk.

The path lies outside, but near, the Raven Cliffs Scenic Area. This is a popular area for tourists and hikers.

* Take US Highway 19/129 south from Blairsville 8 miles, turn left onto Georgia Hwy. 180 for 1 mile, turn right onto Georgia Hwy. 348 (Richard Russell Scenic Highway) for 14 miles.
