Talking Rock

Located in northwest Georgia, the town of Talking Rock harkens back to 1883, when the train was the lifeline of the town.

Every October, Talking Rock hosts the Heritage Days Festival, one of the town's annual highlights. Vendors from around the state join with shop owners for the two-day festival, which includes local cuisine, family fun and live music. Experience the city's locomotive history in fresh ways at Talking Rock Brewery, where you can sip suds in a train car. In fall, leaf peep from the deck of Chateau Meichtry Family Vineyard and Winery.

Some believe Talking Rock's name was inspired by the sound of water rolling over rocks in our beautiful creeks, while others like the story of folks sitting for a spell on a rock to talk with a neighbor. Whatever its origination, it's an unforgettable name and an unforgettable place!
