Lake Conasauga

Georgia is one of the finest states in the South for a remarkable hike. A wide swathe of the Appalachians forms a rocky band across the north of the state. Atlanta, one of the largest urban conurbations in the country, is also conveniently close to this forested wilderness, ideal for day trips. If you desire to immerse yourself in outdoor activities, consider basing yourself in Dahlonega, nestled in the North Georgia mountains. This area boasts a vibrant wine industry, numerous breweries, distilleries, antique shops, and excellent restaurants – all perfect for relaxing after a day spent walking in nature.
