Gurley Creek - FS 137

Trail Overview

Gurley Creek (FS 137) is a narrow, natural trail with some overgrown vegetation. Gurley Falls was once accessible from FS-137. The trail terminates at a large open turnaround and a guardrail blocking the remainder of the trail to Gurley Falls. The old road is visible, although heavily overgrown. There were abundant deer spotted along the trail, and tracks were found in the trail turnaround. FS-137 is heavily shaded by a dense canopy overhead and was a pleasant ride. Small puddles had collected water from a recent rain, but were easily traversed. Cell service was good with major carriers. The falls are now accessible for a fee from the Enota Mountain Retreat. FS-137 is located in the Chattahoochee National Forest and ends at the boundary of the Mark Trail Wilderness (non-motorized / non-mechanized activities only). Contact the Blue Ridge Ranger District for questions at 706-970-9776. A legally licensed vehicle is required to use the forestry road system.
