The Chattooga River, located on the western border of Oconee County and has been designated as “Wild & Scenic” and flows freely along the South Carolina/Georgia border. The Chattooga was federally protected in 1974 by the Wild & Scenic Rivers Act, forever preserving its rugged river gorge from development.
This gives, the Chattooga delivers breathtaking scenery and treasured whitewater in an unmatched wilderness setting.
The Stumphouse Tunnel in Oconee County, South Carolina should be your first stop. It has a cool story about how it was built and your kids will love it, there is a railroad cart on site and the tunnel is fun to look at and makse awesome echo sounds!
