Cheaha Mountain
Cheaha Mountain is the highest point in Alabama, a quartzite ridge in the Talladega Mountains reachable almost entirely by paved road within Cheaha State Park. Its summit area holds Bunker Tower, a stone Civilian Conservation Corps observation structure, and the wheelchair-accessible Bald Rock Boardwalk, which leads to sweeping views over the surrounding Talladega National Forest. The mountain's name is generally traced to a Muscogee (Creek) or Choctaw word meaning 'high place.'
