The Peach State is truly a state for all seasons, and autumn is no exception, with its crisp fall air, bright blue skies, and the promise of fall foliage. Of course, to see the most striking seasonal colors, you'll want to head into the mountains. Today, we're venturing to Black Rock Mountain State Park to enjoy some of the best fall foliage in Georgia. Ready to be amazed? Let's go!
For some of the best fall foliage views in Georgia, look no further than Black Rock Mountain State Park.
At an elevation of over 3,000 feet above sea level, it's the single highest state park in all of Georgia. This translates to beautiful, panoramic views for as far as the eye can see.
The park is home to four hiking trails, each of which showcases the unique landscapes found in the park.
Of course, the highlight of the park is the Blue Ridge Overlook, where views of Georgia's famous Blue Ridge Mountains are sure to take your breath away.
This is especially true in the fall season when the hues of red, orange, and gold adorn layers upon layers of mountains in the distance. Trust us when we say you won't want to forget to bring your camera with you!
Given that this is such a spectacular state park, you might be tempted to stay the night!
The park offers cabin rentals as well as traditional tent sites, RV campsites, and backcountry campsites.
