Rich Mountain Wilderness

Rich Mountain Wilderness
Just north of Ellijay, the Rich Mountain Wilderness offers more than 9,000 acres of rugged backcountry to explore. This protected area is part of the Chattahoochee National Forest and features remote hiking trails, scenic ridgelines, and peaceful creek crossings. It's an ideal destination for experienced hikers looking to get off the beaten path and enjoy the quiet side of the North Georgia mountains. Wildlife is abundant here, and the views are especially rewarding during the fall when the foliage is at its peak. If you're craving solitude and unspoiled nature, Rich Mountain Wilderness is a must-visit.
