Stone Mountain

One Adventure After Another!

 Serious fun. Endless adventure!

*It's all waiting for you at Georgia's #1 attraction. Just 15 minutes from downtown Atlanta and home to the world's largest piece of exposed granite, this natural wonderland offers 3,200 acres of excitement for every member of the family. A mountain of memories awaits you. Soar to the top of the mountain on the Summit Skyride for an unprecedented view of the Atlanta Skyline. Then take a trek through the treetops on Sky Hike, one of the nation’s largest adventure courses. When your feet are back on solid ground, head to the 4-D Theater and take a hike with the wildest bears on Earth in the YOGI BEAR 4-D Adventure. New for 2012, experience Geyser Towers! This first and only adventure of its kind brings an all-new must-do experience to Stone Mountain Park. Ideal for the whole family, Geyser Towers features multiple levels of suspended rope bridges and net tunnels connected to towering platforms that overlook a gushing geyser. With its sporadic eruptions and multiple offshoots, you can play in the spray or stay high and dry. The options and the fun, are all yours! And of course don’t miss an Atlanta tradition – the Lasershow Spectacular in Mountainvision. This newly transformed show will wow your family with state-of-the-art digital graphics and awe-inspiring effects. The Lasershow can be seen every Saturday, April 14 - May.*

THIS is where we're going tomorrow!  We're so excited to have this fabulous family adventure so close to home.  And they have a campground at the mountain as well, so we decided to stay for the weekend!      In the winter, they also have a snow area, with tubing and other fun snow-related activities :D

(This is not a paid endorsement of any kind......I'm just excited!)

So excited that I even copied some of the pictures from their website :D
 



A little blurry, but you get the idea!



The mountain has been a favorite Atlanta attraction for many years, and we can see it when we climb up the mountain near us and look east across the city of Atlanta.  And since it's only about an hour drive from our home, we're hoping to purchase a year-long season pass for the whole gang soon.  They have something for every season (pumpkin picking, hay rides, winter activities), so it should be a fun place for our family for years to come!

When I was growing up in Georgia (Newnan to be exact!) we visited Stone Mountain OFTEN and absolutely LOVED the laser light show!!! Since my husband and I moved away in 2008 things have really taken off with the park and all the extras they now offer! We look forward to taking our daughter when she's a little bit older and now that we're closer we may take advantage of the seasonal activities as well!

Have fun and be safe!
