AROUND TOWN:

When you stay at The Fernweh, you are planting yourself in Georgia's very own little German town, Alpine Helen. It's a small Bavarian-inspired village filled with mountain activities, restaurants, and little shops.

Just a short drive or leisurely stroll will take you downtown (1.5 miles) where you can enjoy a German beer, float the river, or try rolled ice cream (say hi to Charlie, the owner!)

IF you plan on visiting in the fall, you must come for Oktoberfest! Or come for the Christmas Market or for the New Year's Eve Edelweiss Drop, where the town lights up.

If you have plans to visit Helen in the summer, hike the Blue Ridge Mountains and then float down the Chattahoochee River. Springtime bring blooming Dogwood and the Bavarian Fest and Hot Air Balloon Festival in May.

Our hope is that you will come and stay with us every season to truly experience all that this wunderbar area has to offer!
