Ellijay, GA Real Estate and Visitor’s Guide
Ellijay, located about 80 miles north of Atlanta in Gilmer County, is best known for being the Apple Capital of Georgia. The North Georgia mountain terrain and cool summer climate makes for ideal growing conditions for apples, and you find plenty of them here!
The town of Ellijay, located on the west bank of Ellijay River, became the county seat in 1834. Prospecting for gold and logging lead to the arrival of the iron rail in the latter 1800s. Today, Ellijay is a quaint town filled with antique shops, galleries, dining, a variety of lodging and brimming with historical sites and architecture.
From the heights of Rich Mountain, to the shores of Carters Lake, Gilmer County is a land diverse in outdoor recreation. The Rich Mountain Wilderness contains 13,276 acres of primitive back country and wilderness, great for the rugged backpack adventure. The Cohutta Wilderness Area is even more massive. It consists of 36,977 acres within a 95,265 acre Cohutta Wildlife Management Area, making the Cohutta the third largest wilderness in the eastern United States. Carter’s Lake provides water recreation while Gilmer’s mountain streams and trails draw visitors year ’round. Amicalola Falls, one of the largest set of waterfalls east of the Mississippi River is just 20 miles southeast of Ellijay.
Ellijay is where winter is a mountain top dusted with snow; spring is a hillside layered with apple blossoms; summer is a valley sprinkled with wildflowers; and fall is a mountain side covered with a patchwork quilt of multicolored leaves. Come spend a day, a week, or a lifetime!
