General Information

50 min. If guard station isn't open, turn left just before guard station and park on right and far right sides of the lot depending on launch choice. Because of the surrounding mountains, locals say this place rips on an East wind. For the big fall and spring westerlies, even those who live on Allattoona make the trip over to Van Pugh on Lake Lanier.
