TLDR: How is the drive to the Springer Mt. parking lot (dirt/gravel/paved road)?
This summer I will be somewhat near Springer Mt. for a wedding with my husband and kids, aged 3.5 and 1.5 years. We would like to visit Amicalola Falls State Park and maybe spend a night or two there. I would love to see the southern-most blaze of the AT. I grew up literally next to the trail in PA and hike this section frequently, so it would be really special and neat to see Springer Mt. However, my kids can't handle the approach trail. What is the drive to the Springer Mt. parking lot like; it is a forrest service road correct? Can a Honda Civic handle it?
