Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Cloudland Canyon adventure.
Explore a waterfall-strewn canyon and sweeping views of the Appalachians in one day. Â
Sandstone cliffs, tumbling waterfalls, and views over the Appalachian Mountains make Cloudland Canyon one of the most popular state parks in Georgia. Trails range from family-friendly to strenuous, but always pack in picture-worthy vistas. True to its name, Cloudland Canyon straddles a deep gorge cut into the mountain by Sitton Gulch Creek, and elevation ranges from 800 to 1,980 feet. The park is located on the western edge of popular Lookout Mountain—itâs a worthwhile add-on for visitors who want to keep exploring. From biking to caving and even a disc golf course, thereâs plenty to do during your stay. The expansive Cloudland Canyon State Park Campground offers tent sites, cottages, yurts, a lodge, and a handful of backcountry campsites.
Cloudland Canyon offers visitors a different experience with every season. Youâll find hot weather and high water levels in summer, magnificent changing leaves in fall, cascades frozen mid-tumble in winter, and reawakening wildlife in spring. Because of the parkâs proximity to Atlanta, expect crowds on weekends and holidays.
