Swim in Lake Sidney Lanier at Dogwood Park
Gainesville, Georgia

Kayak the Chestatee River South of Dahlonega
Dahlonega, Georgia
4.0
This six mile section of the Chestatee River is a safe, enjoyable float mostly away from civilization. There are several small rapids and bumpy areas (class 1) throughout, with two larger rapids (class 1-2) towards the end of the section. It does get pretty shallow in some sections, so keep watch and steer clear of bigger rocks! We saw many turtles sunbathing on the banks and on partially subme...
