Graham County elevation and terrain tools
Mountains • County seat: Robbinsville
Graham County is rugged mountain country where the Great Smoky Mountains come down to Fontana Lake on its northern edge and the Snowbird and Unicoi mountains rise toward the Tennessee line. The Cheoah River and Santeetlah Lake lie in the narrow valley at Robbinsville, with steep forested slopes of the Nantahala National Forest on every side.
