Rock City is a bouldering area in Georgia, sitting about 0.1 mile from the town of Rock City. It is a small, single-boulder spot, with one route listed: "Be Still," a boulder problem rated V0-1. The route was first climbed by Destin B. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show October highs around 67°F with lows near 51°F, and May highs around 74°F. That station sits about 2.5 miles away and roughly 470 feet lower, so temperatures at the boulders run a little cooler. The closest neighbors are the Glen Falls Trail, about 0.9 mile away, and the St. Elmo Trail and Shingle Trail across the Tennessee line, each about 1.3 miles off. Climbers can also head to Sunset North, about 1.8 miles away.
