If you really love hiking throughout the state of Georgia, but are looking for a new type of adventure, then this one’s for you. It’s the perfect type of off-beat, unusual, but totally cool hike that everyone hopes to take. Of course we’re talking about the full-moon suspension bridge hike at Tallulah Gorge. Tallulah Gorge State Park draws so many visitors throughout the year, as it truly is one of the more magical spots in the state. However, this full-moon hike is a bit of a hidden gem to Georgia hikers, and we’re here to tell you why it needs to be on your bucket list.

This hike will take you down 310 stairs to the suspension bridge and on the rim of the gorge under the beautiful light of the full moon.

The hike in total is only about 1-mile, so it’s pretty much open to all ages and skill levels.

This unique hike is truly special, because the park is normally closed at night.
