The Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest is the largest stretch of public land in Georgia, with endless ridges, streams, and quiet hollows to explore. Hiking here feels immersive, with dense hardwood forest, abundant wildlife, and plenty of space for dispersed camping. On the Benton MacKaye Trail, it adds a true backcountry atmosphere just a short distance from Blue Ridge.
