Long County, Georgia
Long County, Georgia, is a place that marches to its own beat. It’s nestled in the southeastern part of the state, not far from the coast. Ludowici is the county seat. The county has a unique shape. It’s long and narrow, just like its name. Well, not the narrow part but you know what I mean.
Forests dominate the landscape here. Everyone has their favorite spot for hunting or hiking. The Altamaha River forms the county’s western border, with prime spots for fishing and kayaking.
Long County’s history is tied to the turpentine industry. You can still see old pine trees with diagonal cuts from sap collection. These days, it’s a mix of old and new. Fort Stewart spills over a bit into the county, bringing a military presence. The annual Long County Wildlife Festival is a big hit.
