See the Beauty of Fall in Rabun County

Fall is here and there is no better place to see the beautiful colors of fall than Rabun County, says CJ Thompson, Manager of Marketing and Tourism for Rabun County.  “Well, everybody talks about going leaf looking and a lot of people tend to make fun of the idea but the fact of the matter is that fall color in the mountains really is worth seeing and it’s not just the color of the leaves but the whole experience you get when you come to the mountains.  We have all types of festivals going on, fall festivals, farmer activities at produce stands and farmers’ markets, and all kinds of restaurants have special events and live music going on.  So, if you come to the mountains to look at the leaves, you are going to have a good time doing everything else we have to offer as well.  There are so many different ways to experience leaf-looking in the mountains, it’s not just driving around in your car.  We have hiking trails that lead to waterfalls or you can go mountain biking or horseback riding, you can even look at the leaves from a kayak on an outback river.  There are just so many ways to experience the outdoors and the lovely climate that we have here in the fall that it is really worth coming up to see for yourself what leaf looking is really all about.  If it wasn’t so nice people wouldn’t keep doing it and it wouldn’t become a cliché.  So, there is really something to it and we hope people will come and experience the mountains and the fall color in Rabun County.”  Thompson encourages you to check out a few websites before planning a trip to the mountains in Rabun County.  “We have our https://explorerabun.com/ website, which we have a calendar on and then we also have launched a new aspect to our website, which is at https://visit.explorerabun.com/ and on that are all the events if you go to the events section that are going on that have been posted by all kinds of organizations throughout our county and our area.  On that site, you can actually get directions and buy tickets if it is necessary.  So, everything you need is in one spot at https://visit.explorerabun.com/.”  So, get outdoors and enjoy the beauty of fall in Rabun County.
