Located on Pine Mountain, this 10,000-acre park is deeply rooted in the historical era of four-time President Franklin D. Roosevelt.  Seeking a place for treatment after he was stricken with polio in 1921, Roosevelt traveled to nearby Warm Springs and built his Little White House.  Several structures within the park, including the mountain stone swimming pool, were built by Roosevelt’s Civilian Conservation Corps during the Depression.  Above Kings Gap, you’ll find Dowdell’s  Knob, Roosevelt’s favorite picnic spot overlooking a magnificent view of the valley below.   Hikers will especially enjoy the scenic trails in Georgia’s largest state park.
