Georgia A project of the Oglethorpe County Recreation Dept. Directions to the Park Traveling East from Athens on US 78 turn right on Upson St. Traveling West from Washington on US 78 turn left on Upson St. Stay straight through the intersection onto Shaking Rock Rd.
Visitors enter Shaking Rock Park between two large boulders.
They are positioned as if to hide the wondrous sights beyond. This boulder is called Breadloaf Rock. Only about two square yards of the stone is in contact with the boulder below. It looks as if it will topple at any moment. A testament to Nature's awesome forces.
