North Georgia Hiking Trails

The trails in Hiawassee and Young Harris, Georgia are heaven on earth for hikers. Hiking trails from easy to strenuous, provide something for everyone. The Appalachian Trail (AT), which stretches from Springer Mountain, Georgia to Mt. Katahdin, Maine, runs through part of Towns County. Lake Chatuge and the community of Hiawassee are part of the Appalachian Trail Community partnership with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy.

 

Additional favorite hiking trails include the half-mile trail to the top of Brasstown Bald, which is paved but steep, and allows you to explore the top of Georgia’s highest mountain. Beautiful Brasstown Valley Resort & Spa offers more than nine miles of interpretive hiking trails, known as the Miller Trek. The Jackrabbit Mountain Bike and Hiking Trail System in nearby Hayesville, North Carolina offers about 15 miles of singletrack trails, many of which border Lake Chatuge.

 

Towns County has at least eight designated trails. Download a list of area hiking trails and waterfalls with directions for getting to each one.

 
 

Brasstown Bald – Georgia's Highest Point

Beautiful Brasstown Bald, rising 4784 feet above sea level, is Georgia’s highest mountain and only a few minutes from downtown Hiawassee, Georgia. The lofty perch makes it the first location in Georgia to see our fall foliage. On clear days, the spectacular 360-degree view from the top of Brasstown Bald allows you to see four states: Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina , and South Carolina. The surrounding area is home to a wide variety of plants and animals, with the mountain laurel and rhododendron blooms lighting up the mountains in season. The visitor information center at the summit of Brasstown Bald offers exhibits, video presentations, and interpretive programs.
