The Sandhills
In the center of the state, also known as the Midlands, are the Sandhills. The Sandhills are rolling hills of rough, sandy soil.
First, take a ride in the Sandhills State Forest to see what this region looks like!
The Sandhills are rolling hills of rough, sandy soil that begin at the fall line. A fall line is a long, low cliff. At the fall line, rivers drop suddenly. Because the fall line is a stopping point, it makes a natural border. The fall line in South Carolina forms the border between the Sandhills and the Piedmont.
