The Chattahoochee National Forest covers 18 North Georgia counties and includes over 2,200 miles of rivers and streams. There are over 450 miles of hiking trails that range from easy to extremely strenuous so choose the one best suited for you. The beginning of the 2,174-mile Appalachian Trail is located here. There are also numerous waterfalls you can hike to and enjoy. My brother & I recently visited. We hiked Desota Falls, Panther Creek, Raven Falls, & Brasstown Bald. We had a great time and can’t wait to return. Just driving through this beautiful area will provide you with some of the most spectacular views in the country. Highly recommend!

4. Moonrise Distillery
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 68 reviews
We’re doing things at Moonrise Distillery like they’ve been done since the early 1950s. While it seems like an old-fashioned, inefficient process, our use of tried and true methods and time consuming double-distillation removes impurities for a more refined sipping bourbon and rye whiskey. And unlike most distillers, we let our spirits tell us when they are ready - aging by taste and not by time. We also craft small batch vodka, artisan gin and brandy. Our mountain distillery setting is the perfect place to enjoy a souvenir tasting tour and then relax and enjoy our craft cocktails. Our venue features an 80 foot long covered front porch with view of Black Rock Mountain, an outdoor grotto and fire pit area. We also host live music at our music pavilion complete with turf lawn. We are open for tours Monday through Saturday except Wednesday from 11am to 5pm. We remain open for cocktails and relaxation until 8pm. Our Sunday hours are 12;30 to 8. We look forward to seeing you soon.

We took our dog for a hike at Warwoman Dell to chase waterfalls. Its a really beautiful area. A short nature trail leads into the canyon and to the small but scenic Warwoman Dell Falls. Following Bartram Trail northbound, Becky Branch Falls is just a short ways across the main road. Bartram Trail leads about 2 miles to Martin Creek Falls and there is a Lower Martin Creek Falls a short ways downstream. Overall, a beautiful area and great place for a hike in nature.
