Lose the crowds and experience the magic of Independence Day like never before. 

This event is where adventure, the beauty of God’s creation, and patriotism collide for one epic night atop Georgia’s highest peak—a destination that promises adventure, awe, and inspiration for your soul. 

The evening begins with an invigorating .6-mile hike to the summit of Brasstown Bald (1.2-mile round trip). As we ascend the observation deck, jaw-dropping panoramic mountain vistas come into view. Next, we will enjoy the stunning sunset as it paints the sky, mountain ridges and valleys below with dazzling colors.

Don’t miss your chance to create lasting memories and celebrate freedom in the most extraordinary setting imaginable.
