Just to the west of town is the Johns Mountain Wildlife Management Area in Dalton. Just under 25,000 acres, Johns Mountain WMA offers visitors an expansive look into Georgia’s wilderness atmosphere. You can explore along the various hiking and biking trails that wind through the area and get a true sense of the wilderness and wildlife. You can also check out the various streams and ponds and see if you can catch some local catfish or bass, with the proper licensing. Outdoor enthusiasts can even secure a hunting license and try their luck in hunting corridors of the WMA.

For those looking to explore the mountains of Northern Georgia, look no further than the Fort Mountain State Park in Chatsworth. Just a short drive to the north of Fairmount, Fort Mountain State Park is home to Fort Mountain, standing at 2,850 feet elevation and ideal for a great day climb. History buffs can instead head out in search of the mysterious 855-foot stone wall near the top of the mountain that is believed to have been built by the Cherokee, though little else is known about it. Maybe some new ideas will come to light when you visit. If you’re visiting in the summer, you can rent a canoe or kayak through the park and enjoy Fort Mountain Lake.

A short drive to the south is the Red Top Mountain State Park in Cartersville along the shores of Allatoona Lake. This is the perfect spot to go to beat the Georgia summer heat.

Not only that, history buffs will have a field day at Red Top too. The Allatoona Pass Battlefield, a battleground from the Civil War, is preserved and maintained within the park. You can head out on the “Allatoona Pass” trail, and you will be able to see trenches, artillery holds, and even the remains of Allatoona Fort.

Thousands of classic cars have been laid to rest in this junkyard, and the earth has done its part to reclaim them, resulting in an eerily beautiful tapestry of vines encircling these metal beasts. Old Car City is also home to cars that used to belong to some rather famous individuals, such as Elvis and Johnny Cash.
