Mountains: The Appalachian Mountains run along the northern edge of Georgia, creating a rugged, mountainous region known as the North Georgia Mountains. This area features high elevations, forested slopes, and scenic views. Notable peaks include Brasstown Bald, the highest point in Georgia, as well as Mount Yonah and Rabun Bald.
Piedmont: The Piedmont region is located between the Appalachian Mountains and the Atlantic Coastal Plain. It consists of rolling hills, valleys, and plateaus, with a mixture of forests, farmland, and urban areas. The Piedmont stretches across the central part of Georgia and is known for its red clay soil and numerous rivers and streams.
Coastal Plain: The Atlantic Coastal Plain encompasses the southern portion of Georgia and extends to the Atlantic Ocean. This region is characterized by flat, low-lying land, with vast stretches of marshland, swamps, and barrier islands. The coastline of Georgia is dotted with beautiful beaches, such as Tybee Island, Jekyll Island, and St. Simons Island.
Ridge and Valley: The Ridge and Valley region is a narrow strip of land located between the Appalachian Mountains and the Piedmont. It is characterized by alternating ridges and valleys, formed by the erosion of sedimentary rocks. This region extends across the northwestern corner of Georgia.
