3085 Black Rock Mountain Parkway 706-746-2141 Park Information Black Rock Mountain State Park Web Site
Open Year-Round
Entry Fee Charged
Stradding the Eastern Continental Divide, rising to 3,640 feet, Black Rock Mountain is the focal point of Georgia's highest state park. The mountain is named for its sheer cliffs of dark biotite gneiss. These forbidding drops, the region's clear air and dense forests make for a wild and awe-inspiring nature experience. On a clear day, the 1,743-acre park's scenic overlooks afford views of up to 80 miles across the Southern Appalachians. Paved roads lead to four overlooks. Four hiking trails totaling nearly 11 miles lead to several overlooks, including the summit of Black Rock Mountain. Depending on the trail, hiking ranges from easy to strenuous. The park's newest trail encircles Black Rock Lake. Several bridges cross cascading mountain streams along this gently rolling pathway. Camping options span the comfort spectrum, from four backcountry and 12 walk-in sites to 10 rental cottages. There are 48 tent/RV sites, a campground store and three wheelchair-accessible campsites. On 17-acre Black Rock Lake, fishing is permitted from the banks or a barrier-free fishing pier. Anglers cast for bream, bass, yellow perch, catfish and trout. The park is located on Black Rock Mountain Parkway, just off U.S. Route 441, three miles north of Clayton. Photo credits in order: Courtesy of Georgia Department of Natural Resources. |
