5 Things to Do in Young Harris

Where? Way up in the North Georgia mountains, almost to North Carolina, is a town full of fun. Don’t believe me? Here are five reasons you should visit Young Harris.

Rollins Planetarium

A part of Young Harris College, Rollins Planetarium is a state-of-the-art attraction. Renovated in 2011, the planetarium uses its Sky-Skan Definiti full-dome digital projection system to create an immersive experience under its 40-foot dome. On most Fridays, the Planetarium offers inexpensive public shows.

Brasstown Valley Resort & Spa

Just two hours from Atlanta and Chattanooga, Brasstown Valley Resort & Spa feels like a world away where life is a little slower thanks to its acres of outdoor fun. On top of that, it has a 7,500-square-foot spa just waiting for you. Golf and sporting packages are also available.

Miller Trek Trail

Hike into the Chattahoochee National Forest from Brasstown Valley Resort on the 6.5-mile Miller Trek Trail lined with flowering plants. For a shorter hike, follow the 2.5-mile loop.

Cupid Falls Farm

Cupid Falls Farm is a gorgeous working farm with alpacas, llamas and assorted other farm animals. Stop by to see the alpacas grazing, then pop into the shop to see, feel and buy their alpaca products, handmade soaps and fiber products.

Crane Creek Vineyards
