Blossom Hill

Blossom Hill is a summit in Rome, Georgia, rising 784 feet (239 meters) above sea level and forming one of the Seven Hills that define the local landscape. The hill features a trail system that connects to nearby hiking routes through the surrounding area.

The Works Progress Administration built stone structures on the hillside in the 1930s, creating the foundation for modern trail development. A water treatment facility was later constructed on the summit, reflecting how the location's elevation was valued for practical purposes.

The Bruce Hamler Water Treatment Plant, built in 1939 on the summit, represents the integration of infrastructure with natural elevation advantages.

The main access point is from Dogwood Drive where roadside parking is available to begin your visit. The trail network is accessible to most visitors and branches out to connect with other routes in the area.

Local trail developer Steve Kight and TRED volunteers created a loop trail at the base of the water facility, connecting with Jackson Hill paths.
