This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Altearius (talk | contribs) at 15:29, 24 November 2016 (Tray Mountain previously had the same coordinates as Brasstown Bald mountain. I've updated the coordinates using the lat/lng from Google Maps.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Brasstown Bald is the highest peak in the U.S. state of Georgia

This page lists notable mountains in the U.S. state of Georgia.

Highest mountains

The following sortable table lists the 11 highest mountain peaks of Georgia with at least 100 feet (30 m) of topographic prominence. The eleven highest mountains in Georgia are all located in four counties in northeast Georgia. Some of these mountains have true summits or peaks, while others are high points on a ridge. Listings found elsewhere may not necessarily agree because they do not include each of these mountains.
