Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
From Helen, GA: Follow GA State Route 75 North to GA State Route 75 -Alternate. Turn left onto GA-75A. In 2.3 miles, take a soft right onto GA State Route 348. Follow GA-348 for 2.7 miles, and then, turn left onto Forest Service Road 244 at a sign for Raven Cliffs Trailhead. Drive past the large parking area on the left (Ravens Cliffs Trailhead parking). Continue on FR 244; you will eventually cross a stream (about 12 to 18 inches deep depending on weather conditions), continue for about 6 miles. This camp spot sits on Dover Creek. There are actually several pull-off camping spots along FR 244 which this is only one.

Latest Check-Ins
Got to this place and there was a large gate across the entrance of the road. No signs so not sure what happened
Report Check-InGreat trail! We actually moved the tree that was mentioned in the previous review so it’s good to go! Fun terrain, but it is rather rough. A really great water crossing that was about 14” deep when we crossed. Crossed it in my Volvo XC70 with a 2” lift and it did just fine. Beautiful camp sites, however the road does end rather abruptly right when you start going up White Oak Mountain. Worth the trip!
Report Check-InWARNING! This road has really rough terrain! Don’t come with trailer! We didn’t actually make it to top because of a huge fallen tree in the way. We are now going to have to back down until we can find a way to turn around. I believe it would have been nice at the top though. We made the mistake of coming at night but would have been much safer with daylight.
