What to do and what to see:
You can enjoy plenty of outdoor activities during a trip to Blue Ridge Mountains. The Appalachian and the Benton MacKaye Trails are two journeys you can take if you enjoy hiking. The Swinging Bridge above the Toccoa River is the longest suspension bridge to the east of Mississippi.
Weekends on Toccoa River can be full of fun for tubing, canoeing, kayaking and trout fishing lovers. Paddlers can take The Toccoa River Canoe Trail, while mountain bikers can try the Aska Adventure Trails Area. Camping in Cohutta Mountains is another opportunity, and white water rafting on Ocoee River attracts tourists from March through October. The Ocoee Whitewater Center was the location of 1996 Summer Olympics for canoe, kayak and slalom.
Art and culture lovers will find plenty of art fairs, festivals and concerts sponsored by the local organizations. Mercier Orchard offers the most delicious pastries, a wide variety of seasonal fruits, jellys and jams, smoked trout and other gift items. Tourists can see the action in the bakery and fruit processing areas and pick their own apples in autumn.
Watch the spectacular fireworks over Lake Blue Ridge at night or enjoy Western rodeo with bull riding at the Blue Ridge Kiwanis Rodeo.
