Chattahoochee Source Trail — photo spot in GA-180 Spur, Blairsville, GA 30512, USA
Chattahoochee Source Trail
Short, easy boardwalk trail to the official headwaters of the Chattahoochee River — mossy boulders, cascades, hemlock and rhododendron canopies create intimate riverscape compositions. Best at golden hour or after rain when flow and contrast are strongest; autumn yields vivid foliage. Trailhead parking is on GA-180 Spur (small lot); no fee but expect limited spaces. Trail is short and partially boardwalked with some steps — accessible for most hikers but bring waterproof boots if exploring banks
