If you're looking for great national parks in Georgia, you'll be pleasantly surprised. The Peach State may not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of the great outdoors, as it's often overshadowed by the more famous parks and rugged peaks out West. But Georgia is home to an impressive 11 National Park Service installations and nearly 50 state parks in every corner of the state. They represent a wide variety of landscapes—from the coastal plains that are home to wild horses to the steep climb to Springer Mountain that beckons both “thru-hikers” and casual day trampers alike—alongside history from the earliest inhabitants of this land. In short, great parks span the state.
Read on for the best state and national parks in Georgia—whether you're local or coming from further reaches, we promise they're worth a visit this summer.
