Status: Archived Never gone camping in a state park before? Or has it been awhile since your last camping trip? This is your opportunity to go camping at Red Top Mountain State Park for a night and see what it is all about. Fun activities, use of camping equipment, 1-night camping accommodation, and ranger guidance is provided. Call Mon-Thurs to register.

Spaces are limited. Register and pre-pay to reserve your group's spot by calling the Park Office Mon - Thurs 9 AM to 5 PM. Email redtop.programmers@dnr.ga.gov with any questions.
