Buck Bald offers great views and a short drive. This peak is home to the old Fire Lookout Station and is close to Coker Creek. To get there, go south of Coker Creek on Highway 68 and look for the Buck Bald sign on the left. Turn left and begin your ascent, about 2 miles to the top. The 360-degree view is fantastic, with grills and picnic tables.

Buck Bald used to be the location of an old fire tower. The mountaintop is cleared of trees, so it offers a 360 degree view of the area. It's a great place for a picnic or for catching the sunset.

You almost feel as if you were in the clouds from the top of Buck Bald. To the north and east are the Nantahala and Yellow Creek mountains of North Carolina. To the South are the North Georgia mountains around Blairsville, Blue Ridge and Ellijay. In the west is Tennessee’s Big Frog and Little Frog wilderness areas along with Chilhowee Mountain and the Hiwassee and Ocoee River breaks; gaps where the rivers cut through the mountain chains. It is truly a site you don’t want to miss.
