Details on each memorable stop ~
Brasstown Bald The highest mountain in Georgia! The view of neighboring mountains and lakes is spectacular and a nice observation deck with pay telescopes has been built on top of the visitor's center to enhance the view. From Brasstown Bald, you can see parts of Tennessee, South Carolina and Alabama!

Hiker information and trivia is posted along the trail. Alternatively, the road goes to the top as well (for hikers, not for guest vehicles) - with a longer, slightly less-steep grade.
Parking Fee: $2

Accessibility: There is a shuttle vehicle available during park business hours to drive guests to the top; additionally, the facility at the top has an elevator.

Enota Falls There are two wonderful waterfalls reached by separate hikes in the Enota Camping Ground. The taller of the two is over 200 feet tall. The area is full of rhododendron and large boulders, and the streams at the bases of the two waterfalls are beautiful.
Hiker Information: Both waterfalls require a short, but rugged, steep hike. The hike is fairly difficult and is very slippery after rain.
