Georgia enjoys small sections of the two major geologic features in the southeast. The tail end of the Appalachian Mountains play out in the northeast corner of the state with remnants surfacing as far south as Atlanta, while the northwest corner of the state shares a piece of the Cumberland Plateau with neighboring Alabama and Tennessee. All areas south of Atlanta are virtually devoid of climbable rock. Though limited in area, the two regions offer uniquely different types of rock and a diverse variety of climbing.

State high point: Brasstown Bald 4,784 feet
