North View from Rabun Bald

Rabun Bald is the second highest point in the state of Georgia. It’s also one of the wettest spots east of the Mississippi River. I also love it because unlike Brasstown Bald, which has a parking lot, a paved trail, and a visitor center on top, Rabun Bald has only the remains of a fire tower. It feels much wilder, and much more like you’ve earned your views. The views are just as epic. You can see north into North Carolina, east into South Carolina, and south and west into the state of Georgia. The views are incredible, especially in the autumn.
