Forsayth was a mining town then a centre for the outlying properties. There is still gold in them thar hills, but these days only a handful of people mining or prospecting.
The Savanahlander rail line ends here and tours operate from the town. The small park has some interesting carvings done in the tree trunks. Old machinery is also on display.
