Summer is here, and parents everywhere are looking for fun and engaging activities to keep their kids entertained. Here in North Georgia, we're fortunate to have plenty of outdoor adventures, charming towns, and unique attractions that are perfect for family outings. As a realtor and a parent who loves to explore, I'm excited to share our family's top picks for a memorable summer bucket list in North Georgia
Enjoy a fun tubing adventure down the Chattahoochee River in Helen, GA. Local outfitters provide tubes, life jackets, and shuttle services. It’s a relaxing way to spend a hot summer day, and the kids will love floating down the gentle rapids.
Local tubing picks: Cool River Tubing and/or Helen Tubing and Water Park.
2. Catch a Braves Game:
Find cheap seats and attend a Braves game! They have so many actives inside the ballpark for the kids. It's more than a game of baseball. Find out more here!
Anna Ruby Falls in the Chattahoochee National Forest offers a family-friendly half-mile paved trail to the falls, suitable for strollers and young children. Don't forget to pack a picnic and enjoy nature.
Drive to the top of Bell Mountain to see breathtaking views of Lake Chatuge in Hiawassee, Georgia. Afterwards take the family to
Speaking of Hiawasse - check out ALL of the ongoing events at the Fairgrounds. From concerts, to comedy shows, and fireworks - the fairgrounds has it all.
6. Main Event:
For the rainy days of Summer be sure to check out Main Event. We spent hours in the arcade, playing laser tag, and bowling!
7. Trampoline Parks:
We love a good day of jumping and this is another perfect event for rainy summer days! Here are a few trampoline parks that we loved: Sky Zone & Get Air.
Strike out at Clakesville Lanes for the best bowling in Northeast Georgia!
Soak up the sun while enjoying what was previously Lake Lanier Islands Waterpark. Our boys had the greatest time and very little lines. We enjoyed it so much we got season passes! Was totally worth the money in my opinion!
Adventure close to Helen- zipline, beach experience, and paddle boats. Experience it all at Unicoi.
11. Visit Dahlonega:
One of our favorite cities to visit is Dahlonega and we love Connies Ice Cream! This sweet Ice Cream shop is family owned and operated and has the best sandwiches. We always opt to visit Connies after hiking Preachers Rock.
