Staying for the weekend?! After enjoying the wonders of Carters Lake, take a short 20 minute drive to explore the neighboring destinations of Ellijay and Jasper. A bit further north you'll be in Blue Ridge, almost to the North Carolina line. Exciting nature hikes are plentiful along Carters Lake, including the Oak Ridge Trail, which runs lakeside and finishes near a creek. Another great trail in the area is Tumbling Waters which takes hikers to a gorgeous waterfall, one of the few falls not hidden underneath the lake. In the nearby area there is a wide variety of shops, great local restaurants, museums, historic battlefields, ruins and so, so much more.
