Brasstown Wilderness

Brasstown Wilderness protects 13,000 acres of Southern Appalachian forest in Georgia’s Chattahoochee National Forest. This is where Brasstown Bald—Georgia’s highest peak—meets old-growth hardwoods, mountain streams, and ridgeline views that stretch into three states. No designated trails mean fewer footprints and more solitude. It’s rugged, overlooked, and exactly the kind of wilderness that deserves recognition. Rep a Georgia wild place that most people drive past without knowing exists.
