Sawnee Mountain Preserve

Sawnee Mountain Preserve in Cumming, GA, visibly links to the summit of the Blue Ridge Mountain Range, as well as the rich history of the woodland culture of North Georgia’s Native American inhabitants. The mountain is named after a local Cherokee Native American, Sawnee. Now, after having survived the passage of time, natural disasters, searches for gold, timber clearing, and urban development, the land has been preserved. There is much to see and do at Sawnee Mountain Preserve. A popular destination is the Indian Seats, a natural rock formation at the top of the trail system, offering a beautiful setting to enjoy views of the North Georgia Mountains.
