Red Top Mountain State Park

Red Top Mountain was originally an important mining location, named after the soil's deep red hue produced by high iron-ore concentration. The famous Red Top Mountain State Park is now located in this location. The park's 12,000-acre Lake Allatoona serves as a playground for watersports enthusiasts of all types.

Visitors can hire boats of the marinas or bring their own ones to explore the lake. Hikers may enjoy almost 15 miles of path, including the 4-mile Iron Hill Trail, which is available to both hikers and bikers. There are rental cottages available, as well as a campsite.
