8 days in Blue Ridge Itinerary

A small resort town located in Georgia's "Historic High Country," Blue Ridge sits right on the national scenic trail that follows the Appalachian mountain range for over 3,300 km (2,100 mi).

You've now added Unicoi Zip Line and Aerial Adventure Park to your itinerary. Family-friendly places like Toccoa River Swinging Bridge and Daffodil Hill Farm and Carriage will thrill your kids. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Long Creek Falls and Helton Creek Falls. Venture out of the city with trips to Helen (Dukes Creek Falls Trail, Anna Ruby Falls, &more), Bald River Falls (in Tellico Plains) and Blairsville (Horseback Riding Tours, Brasstown Bald, &more). There's still lots to do: trek along Murphy River Walk, see the interesting displays at Ducktown Basin Museum, and delve into the lush surroundings at Chattahoochee National Forest.
