• OUTDOOR ATTRACTIONS •

Dahlonega’s gorgeous natural
environment makes it a perfect spot
for all kinds of outdoor recreation.
Hiking, tubing, cycling, fishing,
and canoeing are popular outdoor
sports here. Visiting one of the
local wildlife preserves is a great
way to learn about and get close
to animals that would otherwise
be elusive. To really feel like a kid
again, try finding your way out of
an old-fashioned corn maze – a
country pleasure like no other.
