Located between the mountainous north part of the state and the southern plains, the Piedmont Region contains the greatest concentration of population in the state. Consisting mostly of rolling terrain, one of the highlights of the area is the number of lakes with varied recreation and entertainment opportunities. The area, like the rest of the state, is rich in history, including many Civil War sites and historic towns and cities that retain the charm of earlier days. Yet this is also the heart of a growing and vibrant center of social and economic importance for the region. Luckily, amid all the development, campers can still find plenty of great places to get away from it all.
