Allatoona Pass - Allatoona Lake Trails

Allatoona Pass is a historically significant location due to its role in two major incidents during the American Civil War: the Great Locomotive Chase and the Battle of Allatoona Pass. Today, the well -preserved earthworks and trenches are still visible. Interpretive panels and several monuments dedicated to the soldiers who fought in the battle provide context for the battle.

To get to Allatoona Pass, take Exit 283 (Emerson Allatoona Road) off of I-75 towards the East and follow the signs. The site is managed by Red Top Mountain State Park of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Parks and Historic Sites Division.
