Did you have any luck with the Gold there ??I've been to the Dahlonega area to prospect for gold but didn't really see any places that stood out to metal detect. But just like anywhere else research is the key. Try to find places where folks used to congregate for social events. Old church yards, old schools, picnic areas, parks, camps, etc.
There is a pretty good size public park near downtown on Riley road
