Chattahoochee–Oconee National Forest

Track Rock Petroglyphs


Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest comprises two United States National Forests spanning eastern and northern Georgia for a combined 866,468 acres. The area was given its name by English settlers who took the name from the Cherokee and Creek living there. In one dialect of the Muskogean languages, "Chatta" means stone and "ho chee" marked or flowered, brought together to describe the stones near the Chattahoochee River settlement near Columbus Georgia. The region includes over 2,200 miles of rivers and streams and 450 miles of hiking trails.

Remnants of the Native Americans who lived in this region still exist with a few well known examples being the petroglyphs etched into Judaculla Rock and the Track Rock petroglyphs.
