Discover Beautiful Changing Leaves at Hills & Dales Estate
Considered one of the best-preserved 19th-century gardens in the country, Hills & Dales Estate is the perfect way to enjoy fall weather. The well-designed estate and its pristine grounds were completed in 1916 (many years after the gardens).

Take a walk around the gardens and enjoy the best of Georgia autumn and beautiful changing leaves. Allow at least two hours to tour the estate, there is so much to see! The estate is very family-friendly, they often host children’s adventures and children ages 6 and under are able to enjoy the estate for free.
