Fort Mountain State Park

Fort Mountain State Park is a 3,712 acre (15.02 km²) Georgia state park located between Chatsworth and Ellijay. The park is named for an ancient 885 foot (269.48 m) long rock wall located on the highest point of the mountain. The wall is thought to have been built by area Indians either for defense or for ancient ceremonies. Situated in the Chattahoochee National Forest, the park offers many outdoor activities, such as hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. The park is also known for its unique scenery, a mixture of both hardwood and pine forests and several blueberry thickets. In addition, the park contains a 17 acre (0.07 km²) mountain lake.
