I’ve heard good things about Providence Canyon State Park in central Georgia but guess what? RV camping isn’t offered there so as much as I’d love to spend a few days exploring, I had to look elsewhere for part of my trip heading north from Florida to Nashville. I’m so glad I found Cloudland Canyon State Park on the northern border of Georgia, just a hop, skip, and a jump from Chattanooga, TN. Folks, it’s a not-so-hidden gem!
The views alone are worth checking this park out but along with that there are waterfalls, great hiking (and by great, I should instead say steep, rooty, and rocky!), and *ahem* it has trailer campsites.
As I was hiking around the West Rim Loop, I was so impressed with how well the hiking path is set up and marked. I thought about the men and women who must have put in a million hours to make the park easy for visitors to navigate. They’ve got trail markers, signs, and hundreds of steps (down to… or up from?… the pretty waterfalls) that are just so impressive. Thank you to all those people who put in such effort to make this a top notch park. Here’s a sneak peak at a few pictures I took while camping… to see more check out my portfolio of images here. I’ll be posting again tomorrow with a few more pics because one post just doesn’t do the park justice!
If you have the chance, definitely visit Cloudland State Park, you won’t be disappointed. See you all tomorrow and if you’re itching for more camping stories, take a look at my Camping Stories for everything from hiking in Texas to snorkeling in the Florida keys.
