Lenoard Foote was a flower picture taking kinda guy, the Hike Inn was built in his honor 5 miles above the Amicalola Falls State Park (near Dawsonville, GA). It's a 5-mile hike to the inn, and the trail covers some steep inclines a couple of times. But it also has several water crossings and a lot of beautiful views along the way. This is a must do for sure.
