Course Terrain

The Stone Mountain Walk-Up Trail is a one-mile journey to the summit across Georgia’s famous granite dome. The path starts beneath the trees with a gentle incline before opening onto wide stretches of smooth rock that feel both unique and adventurous. As you climb, the trail offers a mix of steady slopes and short, steeper sections that keep things interesting without being overwhelming. Along the way, you’ll find natural rock formations, open skies, and plenty of spots to pause, catch your breath, and take in the views. Reaching the top brings a breathtaking 360-degree panorama, a rewarding reminder of the climb and the perfect place to celebrate your effort. You will be ascending and descending the trail an equivalent of 36 times up and 36 times down to reach the elevation of the tallest peak on earth, Mt. Everest.
