We took the South Rim (At least I think it was the South Rim) and went to all 5 viewing points which is a flat walk and a round trip of about 1.5 miles. Then we went down into the Gorge which includes 1,099 steps (actual staircase) to the bottom and of course that many steps back up. You can't go all the way to the Gorge floor without a permit but that just means you can only walk down 1,089 steps to a platform. There are plenty of places to stop including a very cool suspension bridge that overlooks Hurricane Falls. This was pretty tough for a 50-year-old fat boy like me but it's doable if you can simply climb stairs. The views are amazing and worth the quads burning for the next 3 days. The visitor's center is really nice. There is of course a gift shop. a huge display of taxidermy of all the local wildlife and a very nice museum that goes through the history of the region. The most important part is they have air conditioning. Suck it up, take the stairs and buy the t-shirt saying you did it when you are done.

There is almost a museum quality to the taxidermy animal scene they have in the middle of the room and along the walls. Truly a special visit! The hike to see the inspirational point and the swinging bridge wasn't too strenuous for my 4 or 5 year old for people's reference when considering it. We are an active family who hikes etc. There were a lot of warnings but we found it wasn't as bad as it seemed.

It is wildly cool that you can still walk/run up this mountain just like the 101st Airborne did in…read morethe 1940s. The trail is gravelled and extremely well maintained since it serves a utility tower on the top of the mountain. The grade of the trail is usually pretty gradual with only a couple portions where it gets really steep, but it is a continual slope for 3 miles so you have to be at least a little physically fit to tackle it. There is a really nice parking area with an informational sign right off the turn to Currahee Mountain Road where you can park. The trail from the parking not is not "original" to the Camp, but it comes around a curve and then joins up with the original trail that comes out of the Camp.

Amazing views, and worth the drive up, but... oh, that road. Took my Jeep Gladiator and drove up to…read morethe top. For the last mile, in first gear the whole way. One close call: someone in a giant GMC SUV had trouble maintaining lane in a curve. Not for the leaden footed drivers. We parked at the first parking lot, which was pretty full, but after the steep, short walk up the remainder, found 3 more spots up top. It's worth checking. The views were spectacular. Our 16 year old dog had some trouble with all the steps, but managed it. Also, more graffiti than you're likely to see in any one place, but climb those stairs, get above the graffiti, and it's worth every step!

Along the road a number of parking areas with lookouts but none were as fabulous as this one which is near the Tesnatee Gap. The drive is amazing in a fancy sports car and if you're a motorcycler, just as incredible. Here at the gap - some 3000 feet ASL according to the GPS - it was absolutely stunning and about what I expected to see. Come back in a week or two and you'll have the leaves changing. This is not the highest point in Georgia. That would be Brasstown Bald and it's about 15 miles north of here and we did not have time to visit. I guess because of boredom, the kids have spray painted graffiti and tags on the parking lot ground. Thankfully, they haven't damaged the amazing view. As for the turd in the big white pickup truck that decided to blast us with his horn... I hope you hit a tree. [Review 15947 overall - 445 in Georgia - 1452 of 2021.]
