My boyfriend's family is going camping, and since I like the outdoors they asked me to find a campsite. They live in Madison, GA and are willing to drive for 2 hours. They are also okay with walking maybe .5 miles to the campground. We would like to see someplace with nice views, waterfalls, and trout fishing. Any ideas? :)

I live in Florida and want to go to Georgia to camp in a real forest, all the forests near me are swamps or rv camps, I want a spot that's you gotta hike up to, mabye like a mile or two, or even is just pretty remote, basically I dont wanna see anyone else there lol, thanks in advance

Does anyone have an Alltrails route for this specific hike (16 mile extension)? Looking to take the lady out for an overnight hike soon and this one seemed worth a look. She is inexperienced but we are planning to take it slow.

Side note, I find it difficult to search specific routes on alltrails... typically when I do a hike I just search a specific area and look for the hike that suits my interest most based on what populates in Alltrails search feed, but it's even harder to do this via phone. Am I the only one who feels this way? I have no issues actually using the app during hikes, it's really just a search engine issue for me.

Hey yall, I'm thinking of camping on Yonah mountain one of these weekends. Would anyone know the general rules of the area? I know it's first come first serve but how early should I get there to guarantee a spot up top?

Hey all! New here, just wondering I anyone had any recommendations for some really remote camping. I want to practice some survival skills, I also have a Jeep and can get pretty much anywhere I need to go. I live North of ATL and definitely would prefer the mountains but technically it’s not required, just want somewhere really remote.

A few days ago I posted about where to get some trout. I ended up having a splendid day and visited many beautiful locations. Many dozens of miles off-roading in my micro truck.

It ended with catching a beautiful rainbow trout that a couple of different fly fisherpersons were not able to get. I was able to get the trout on my $20 Bass pro shop rod with my $3 bait.

Thank you all

Me and a friend are taking a trip real soon and would love to stay at a primitive site somewhere in south Georgia, the closer to FL the better. I'm having a hard time finding cool spots so some help would be greatly appreciated! bonus points for water features and places that don't require reservations...

I am interested in camping around Memorial Day weekend in the area of Cohutta, GA. A lot of campsites there appear to be first come first serve. I am concerned showing up somewhere with all my gear after 3 hrs of driving only to have no place to stay lol even if I show up early per se. Any advice from experienced folks? I would probably show up Thursday May 23 and dray through Sunday May 26.

I'm looking for a decent place to catch some trout. It would be better if it was closer to Atlanta but I don't mind driving all the way to Rabun county if needed or near Unicoi or some other location as long as there are trout

Hi I am visiting Atlanta this coming week and I want to leave the city to go on a hike but only am willing to drive about an hour. Does anyone know any good trails that include either a waterfall or the best highly elevated trails? Thank you!

Just recently camped a couple nights at Raven Cliff and it was a blast!

Looking for something similar with:

• High elevation (I prefer a bit colder weather if possible)
• A water source, preferably a stream
• Primitive campsites

Planning on going solo for this trip so I'd prefer something a bit more challenging but open to anything. Thanks

I hiked Tray Mountain over the weekend. The moment I stopped at the top, my legs were covered in insects. They looked like large gnats, but they bit/stung me.

I have these itchy red spots all over my legs now. They’re very different from a mosquito bite. Any idea what type bugs they were?

Thanks in advance.

anybody interested in hiking up Sawnee Mountain with me? Hmu if you'd like to go.

I’m a fairly experienced camper but was put off from backpacking at a young age when I went out a few times with gear that, in retrospect, was much too heavy for my age/size. I’d like to dip my toe back in but don’t want to commit to anything too strenuous for my first time out in case I just end up confirming that I just don’t like it.

Does anyone know of a good very beginner trail where I can force myself to “pack in” without testing any limits of physical discomfort? Ideally just looking for something where I need to hike in 1.5-3 miles and get an idea for how I like walking with the pack on my back.

New to posting so not really sure of what to put but I live in southeastern ga and i’m just looking for spots nearby but any recommendations are welcomed.

Hello! I am trying overnight car camping for the first time with my dog in two weeks. I tried researching on my own but was unable to find a conclusive answer.

Can I park in any of the visitors spots/parking spaces or do I need to reserve a camp site? These are all the spots I am going Black Rock Overlook, Minnehaha Falls, Dukes Creek Falls, Preacher’s Rock, and Amicalola. Please let me know parking recommendations as well! Thank you!

I've offered it a few times and I have found that the roads are generally in decent shape. Is that the norm in North Georgia?

Have a front wheel drive small pickup truck and a few recovery related equipment. I just want to be prepared if I need to get more

Since spring is here and summer is around the corner, what are some good hiking spots that have natural bodies of water that you can swim at? Preferable in the North or Northwest Georgia area but any recommendation will do!
