Black Rock Mountain Park
Black Rock Mountain State Park, named for its
sheer cliffs of dark-colored biotite gneiss, encompasses some of the most
outstanding country in Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Located astride the
Eastern Continental Divide at an altitude of 3,640 feet, Black Rock Mountain is
the highest state park in Georgia. Numerous scenic overlooks provide
spectacular 80-mile vistas of the Southern Appalachians, and several hiking
trails afford close-up views of wildflowers, streams and lush forests.
