This one has all the potential to be a fantastic day. The views are gorgeous. If you were wanting a trip to Acadia National Park but got North Georgia instead, don’t be discouraged. This is one of the largest state parks in Georgia and it does not disappoint—at least, not the adults in the group.
The boys spent the whole time lying in the path of the Overlook Trail playing with dirt, their hands the excavator bucket. While I got to enjoy the view of the Cumberland Plateau.

Will have to wait for a babysitter to hike the two-mile strenuous Waterfalls Trail.
