About this adventure

Stone Mountain Park's signature winter season combines high-altitude mountain hiking with an extraordinary holiday festival. During daytime hours, families can board the Swiss cable car Summit Skyride to the top of the 825-foot granite dome for crystal-clear winter views of the Appalachian foothills and Atlanta skyline, or hike the 1-mile trail to the summit. As twilight falls, the park illuminates with more than two million festive lights. Children can ride the singalong open-air Scenic Railroad around the mountain's base, witness Santa's overhead flight in his sleigh, and cap the evening with the world-class Christmas Drone & Light Show featuring hundreds of synchronized drones and fireworks.
