Highs & Lows

The views are beautiful

The weather was nice it rained a bit.

Itinerary Overview

The mountains were beautiful. The air was fresh and the food was delicious and healthy. We went kayaking and hiking. During our hike we found large rocks where we sat and took some breaths. The Nature was beautiful and green and very much needed. The drive there was peaceful  I always love a good road-trip. I definitely recommend whenever you’re in the states to visit the mountains in Georgia  and just getaway.

The hike was intense but well worth it. The weather was nice and crisp and there were lots of food options in the surrounding area. We found a cool group of people who had kayaks and let us borrow them for a nice stroll in the huge lake. There were many butterflies and birds of all types and sizes flying around. North Georgia has a lot of history as well. I recommend to anyone visiting the states to check it out.

Tallulah gorge state park was amazing. The hike was intense but the views were magical. There was a lot to wildlife and information on the wildlife. There was a lot to learn and a lot of history as well. The waterfall was the main attraction and I see why. If you’re ever in Georgia I recommend visiting. Tallulah is the most dramatic canyon the eastern united states. It is 2 miles long and 1,000 feet deep! It definitely is a sight to see. We didn’t get to see any black bears while being in their home but thats something I was okay with.
