Cheaha Mountain (2,407'), The Alabama High Point


Cheaha (rhymes with "yee-hah") Mountain is within Cheaha State Park and is accessible by paved road. At the summit is an impressive sandstone CCC-built observation tower which affords a view worth the three-story climb. The walls are impressively thick, making the tower's interior more like a cave than a building, complete with stalactites growing where the rain water has seeped in through the porous rock walls.
