191+/- Acres Off Hwy 136 Dawsonville, GA 30534

This 191+/- acre property features a country mile of the Etowah River running along and through it. A historic remnant from the gold rush heydays of Dahlonega, GA, the property contains the only gold mining tunnel of its kind in the United States with a river flowing through it. The 9' diameter tunnel was blasted perpendicular through approximately one thousand feet of solid Georgia granite in the late 1800's and early 1900's, diverting the entire river through it. The exposed dry river bottom was then mined for gold. A portion of the river still flows through the tunnel. The property's location in Dahlonega's Gold Belt provides a significant historical background. The property includes acres of flat grassy and shaded fields along the waterway, towering cliffs of granite, exposed boulders, mountain laurel, rhododendron, and doghobble. Clear Creek and Buck Creek also flow through the land, which features three spring-fed ponds and a small impoundment. Gentle terrain and timber cover the property. Scenic vistas and meadows along the upper plateau offer views of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the distance. The property is private and secluded, accessed via roadways protected by wrought-iron gates, and is convenient to Hwy 400, major shopping, dining, and activities. A system of groomed roadways traverse the property, providing access to all points of the land. By the main pond, there's a shop building with storage. Historic Dahlonega, its wineries on The Dahlonega Plateau and the Chattahoochee National Forest are nearby. Dawsonville is a few minutes south, and Atlanta is forty minutes away. The location and layout would excel as a private mountain retreat, a unique development or venue, or for personal enjoyment, investment, and adventure.
