Tallulah Adventures Vision

From dream to vision to reality!

Tallulah Adventures was born out of an idea to repurpose the old Welcome Center building off Hwy 441 in Tallulah Falls as an adventure hub and event space for visitors and locals to enjoy. 

Once touted as a premiere vacation destination in the 19th century, Tallulah Falls and the surrounding area hold supreme beauty and offer an ample amount of outdoor adventure and recreational opportunities for those looking to explore. 

At Tallulah Adventures we invite people to choose from a variety of activities ranging from outdoor recreation to art and music, and to curate an adventure experience that suits them. While for some this might be learning how to rock climb or slack line, kayaking or stand-up paddle boarding, going on a white water rafting trip for the first or hundredth time. Others may find adventure in learning about the local history of the area, observing the local flora & fauna, or even taking a painting class while snacking on something from our cafe.

Recognizing the many barriers that exist for people to engage in outdoor recreation and other adventurous activities, Tallulah Adventure’s is built on the principles of inclusivity and accessibility for all. We openly welcome all visitors regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation or religious affiliation.
At Tallulah Adventures we share a collective passion for outdoor recreation and feel a strong sense of gratitude towards nature and the importance of spending time outside. Being in nature makes us realize we are connected to the natural world and we’re not separate from it. When we see ourselves as part of nature, it also helps connect us to everyone else, making it clear that despite our differences, nature and our natural resources are the common threads that sustain us as humans. It is our ultimate goal to provide access to unique outdoor experiences and to encourage people to broaden their horizons, try new things, and explore their edge of adventure.
