    • Hike through scenic state parks.
    • Zip line over the canopies of the Blue Ridge mountains.
    • Visit wineries, farms and local restaurants.
    On this weekend getaway, you will escape the hustle and bustle of the city and drive through the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains, staying at a cozy bed and breakfast overlooking the scenic mountains. It takes you to the charming town of Blue Ridge, Georgia, where you can ride a scenic railway, wander through antique shops and boutiques, or reward yourself with a locally made ice cream!
    Your active pursuits include hiking through pristine trails and waterfalls at what is considered to be one of the seven natural wonders of Georgia. You will get a bird's eye view of the Chattahoochee National Forest at Fort Mountain State Park, and take a fun bike ride at Talking Rock Nature Preserve in North Georgia. This trip also includes some unique hidden spots, like the Bigfoot museum, which will delight both kids and adults. Of course, no visit to North Georgia is complete without a wine tasting and bringing back fresh produce purchased directly from local farms. Get ready to breathe fresh, clean air in the high elevations and enjoy a bit of Appalachia's hospitality during this trip.
