- Natural wonders: lakes, rivers, waterfalls, coastline, and barrier islands for anyone who wants to get out into unspoiled scenery.
- Parks and forests: dozens of state and local parks preserved for their historic value, scenic trails, and modern recreation: rafting, fishing, hiking, and guided tours.
- OHV trails and hiking trails: on foot, by OHV, bike, or horseback, Georgia's forested trails and rolling terrain cover every kind of outdoor trip.
