Overview

This smooth and scenic road is the main entrance to the Blue Ridge Wildlife Area of the Chattahoochee National Forest. Just outside the beautiful Suches, Georgia, this trail offers access to the famous Appalachian Trail, a 2,200 mile hiking trail from Georgia to Maine. Following the heavily stocked trout stream, Rock Creek, all the way past Rock Creek Lake, this trail passes the Chattahoochee Forest National Fish Hatchery, which is open to the public. With at least a half dozen fishing access points to the creek, plus the fish hatchery itself and Rock Creek Lake, this trail offers access to some of the best trout fishing in the area. With hiking, fishing, camping and access to numerous other trails, Rock Creek Road is a great place to spend a day in the mountains.
