Fort Mountain State Park

United States

Overview

Brochure InfoA scenic drive on Hwy. 52 near the Cohutta Wilderness leads visitors to this mountain getaway. Hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders will find some of the most beautiful trails in Georgia, winding through hardwood forest and blueberry thickets, crossing streams and circling a pretty lake. Hikers can also explore a stone fire tower built by the Civilian Conservation Corps and an ancient rock wall which stand on the highest point of the mountain. The mysterious 855-foot-long wall is thought to have been built by early Indians as fortification against more hostile Indians or for ancient ceremonies. During summer, visitors can cool off on a lakeside beach, while stables offer guided horseback rides and stall rental throughout the year. Park guests may stay overnight in fully equipped cottages, a campground or backpacking campsites.Brochure Info - RecreationThings To Do & See Biking Educational Programs First Time Camper Program Fishing Geocaching Hiking Horseback Riding Miniature Golf (fee) Paddling Swimming Weddings with park approval required Jon Boat, Kayak, Canoe, Paddleboard, Aquacycle & Pedal Boat Rental Brochure Info - Facilities and Restrictions3,712 Acres 15 Cottages 70 Tent, Trailer, RV Campsites 4 Walk-in Campsites 6 Platform Campsites Group Shelter (seats 80) Pioneer Campground 4 Backcountry Campsites 17-Acre Lake with Swimming Beach 7 Picnic Shelters Brochure Info - Nearby AttractionsChief Vann House State Historic Site New Echota State Historic Site Amicalola Falls State Park and Lodge Key InfoFor reservation inquiries please call 1-800-864-7275.
