Panola Mountain is a 100 acre (400,000 m²) granite monadnock near Stockbridge in Rockdale County, Georgia (33°38′7″N, 84°10′13″W). The peak is 940 feet (287 m) above sea level, rising 260 feet (80 m) above the South River. Due to its delicate ecological features, Panola Mountain was designated a National Natural Landmark.

[edit] State park

Panola Mountain State Park was created to protect the mountain, a smaller and pristine version of Stone Mountain. Minimally developed, Panola Mountain shelters rare plants of the piedmont region. Hikers may explore the parks watershed and granite outcrop on their own, or they may join park staff for guided hikes onto the restricted-access mountain. Guides also offer hikes to a similar monadnock, Arabia Mountain. The interpretive center features animal exhibits for children. Pets and bicycles are not allowed on trails.
