About this spot
Lake Wedowee, also called R. L. Harris Reservoir, is a 10,660-acre body of water situated in Randolph County, Alabama along the upper Tallapoosa River. The reservoir was constructed at one of Alabama's final hydroelectric generation sites. Access to the cliff jumping area requires a boat. Launch your vessel at the boat ramp located on Route 48, approximately 5.7 miles west of Wedowee in Alabama. From there, navigate roughly 5 miles toward the northeast across the lake to reach the coordinates N33.
Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
