Dahlonega emerged as the site of the first major gold strike in North America, preceding the California gold rush. Between 1838 and 1861, over $6 million in gold was coined by the U.S. Branch Mint in Dahlonega. Dahlonega continues to thrive to this day, and visitors can try their luck at gold-panning while visiting.
The original citizens of Dahlonega were hard-working people who established churches, schools, newspapers, and businesses thus making Dahlonega a stable place to live and raise a family.
From the thrill of whitewater rapids to the peacefulness found in a sunset, the mountains and rivers of Lumpkin County offer beautiful scenery and outdoor excitement.
