Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park
(Macon, GA)
Oculmogee Mounds National Historical Park is a collection of very old and important mounds and earthworks along the Ocmulgeee River and Walnut Creek. Starting from the visitor center, you can walk to the several remaining mounds and see a recreated earth lodge. Behind these is a huge nature area on the river where I even saw several deer walking around.
