Things To Do
Hiking: Yonah Mountain Trailhead (put "Mt Yonah" into your GPS)
There are tons of beautiful hiking trails in the North Georgia mountains. This is one recommendation, but please feel free to see AllTrails for more options. Yonah Mountain Trail is a 4.3 mile loop - We hiked this mountain the day after we got engaged. If you look closely, you can see Yonah Mountain Vineyards from the top!
Anna Ruby Falls
We haven't yet hiked this one, but heard great things about the views!
