Try to get there early and bring blankets, just make it a picnic.
Also, there are train rides around the park and boats tours. The park could easily be a mini vacation in itself. Leave a Comment

 Stone Mountain by MarvintheMartian
On the side of the mountain is a carving - very impressive, however somewhat disturbing in my mind as it's been a focal point for different peoples for many thousand years - why should we spoil natures beauty - guess I'm just being a little narky this evening! But like I said it is still quite impressive.

Swiss-made cable cars take you for a breathtaking ride past the magnificent carving to the mountain's summit. Rising over 825 feet above the surrounding plain, the top of the mountain offers guests fantastic views of Atlanta and The North Georgia countryside. (Yes...I tooke this from the brochure) Leave a Comment

Small mountain of a single rock much like Ayers Rock in Australia. It is built up as a tourist attractions which includes:
A large Rushmore type carving of famous Confederate Generals
A cable car to the top
A train that runs around the mountain
A River boat ride
A 1880 town.
you can pay for each of these seperate or you can pay one price for an armband which gives you access to all the attractions. Leave a Comment

At 1686 feet tall, it stands above anything around the area to the east of the city. Kennesaw Mountain is the only rival to height and size. The area park is 3,200 acres and at the east end of the city. The three figures of great soldiers are carved into the mountainside. Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, and Jefferson DAvis are of fame to the South for what they gave for the cause. It covers 3 acres, or 3 football fields in size. It is 190x90 feet. The mountain is 5 miles around the perimeter, and there are numerous walk paths to take. At the main part there is a small area of the history. In the summers they hold lazer shows with beams of light shining up the sky. The added attractions for visitors includes a lot of "tacky" things to do for adults and kids.

July, 2007. We wanted to ride the cable car to the top of the mountain, ride the train, eat a late lunch, and watch the laser show. We arrived around 3:00. The wonderful lady in the ticket booth told us that the All Attractions pass went down after 4:00 from $19 to $14, so we ate lunch first at Miss Katie's Sideboard. Really good southern food. Then purchased our tickets at 4:00. First we rode to the top of the mountain (no point in going if you don't go to the top). Then we went to the lawn in front of the mountain and laid down our blanket to "stake our claim" for a spot to watch the laser show. Then we rode the train and walked through the shops. (The funnel cake with butter pecan icecream on top was to die for.) Then we went to our blanket around 7:30 - 8:00. Glad we had put our blanket down earlier. There was hardlly a spot left. Laser light show was great! It started around 9:30 so by the time it was over it made for a late evening. Worth it, though. (Parking was $8)
