Tent Camp Site East TN?




ichaya


Planning to for family camping somewhere in East TN. We will have family members driving from Atlanta and Lexington KY. We wanted to be somewhere in middle close to water fall, river etc. Since we will have kids so we do not want to camp in very remote area....please advise.


Answer
Since you want waterfalls, here are two suggestions.

My family use to camp at Amicalola Falls in NE Georgia. Have not been in a long time, but you might check it out at http://gastateparks.org/info/amicalola/

Also check Fall Creek Falls, north of Chattanooga TN. http://www.state.tn.us/environment/parks/FallCreekFalls/
The camping is not remote, but the nearest town is Pikeville and is off the beaten path.

One other suggestion is Great Smoky Mountains National Park. They don't have high waterfalls, but it is a great place to camp. Lots of activities.

I am looking for a secluded camping area that I can reach by jeep in the north Georgia area for a little tent camping. Doesn't have to be miles away from anything, I just don't want to be in a crowded site full of RV's. Any suggestions?


Answer
There are so many. If you can spend about 15 bucks, let me strongly suggest this: The Hiking Trails of North Georgia, by Tim Homan. It's in its third or fourth edition. It is the best. Hands down. (I have no financial or other interest in its sales whatsoever.) There are others, and the Georgia Conservancy's one is pretty good. But, nothing beats this. Have a great hike.
