Georgia, USA offers hikers a humid subtropical climate, with mild winters and hot, humid summers. Winter hikes can be pleasant but watch out for occasional icy conditions. Summer can be uncomfortably hot, especially for strenuous hikes.
The best hiking in Georgia is often found in the cooler spring and fall months. The mild temperatures during these seasons, March to May and September to November, make hiking more comfortable and the changing foliage adds visual interest.
Pay attention to weather forecasts before setting out, especially during hurricane season (June-November). Websites like the National Weather Service (www.weather.gov) provide up-to-date information to keep hikers safe and prepared.
