Black Rock Mountain

Stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains await visitors at Georgia’s Black Rock Mountain. 11 miles of scenic trails, each rated by difficulty, guide visitors past wildflowers, streams, small waterfalls and lush forests. The 2.2 mile Tennessee Rock Trail is the most popular at the park. Consider taking the right fork and moving in a counter-clockwise direction along the trail so that your hike ends with the beautiful, scenic overlooks the trail is known for.

In addition to hiking, visitors can enjoy camping, fishing and a gift shop. Enjoy a lunch under one of the sheltered picnic tables, let young children run around the small playground and if sleeping under the stars isn’t your style, cottages are available to rent.

Visitors staying at the campsites can use the Springhouse Trail to hike to the Tennessee Rock Trail without having to navigate the roadway or re-park. The trailhead is located just beyond the small outdoor educational amphitheater to the left of the Trading Post.

If you’re looking for some evening entertainment, consider heading to the nearby Tiger Drive-In to enjoy a movie under the stars!
