Franklin D. Roosevelt State Park

Franklin D. Roosevelt State Park F.D. Roosevelt State Park is Georgia's largest State Park with nearly 11,000 acres. Above King’s Gap is Dowdell’s K**b where President Franklin D.

At 9,049 acres, Georgia’s largest state park is a hiker’s and backpacker’s haven. More than 40 miles of trails, including the popular 23-mile Pine Mountain Trail, wind through hardwood and pines, over creeks and past small waterfalls. Many visitors are surprised to find rolling mountains 80 miles southwest of Atlanta. Roosevelt sometimes picnicked and pondered world affairs. A life-size sculpture

of the president now welcomes visitors to the overlook. Several park amenities were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression, including cottages and the Liberty Bell Swimming Pool fed by cool springs. A wooded campground sits near the edge of a small fishing lake, and privately operated stables offer guided horseback rides. In 1924, FDR came to this part of Georgia to swim in naturally warm springs that offered relief from polio. Today, nearby Roosevelt’s Little White House Historic Site invites visitors to see his modest home, a museum and the pools that first drew him here. Remember there is a $5.00 per vehicle State Parking Fee. Please complete the program survey by clinking the link below:
