This is by far my favorite route in GA. I normally avoid Helen and arrive from the north, traffic backs up for miles on the weekend going into Helen. Be careful of gravel on Route 348 on the south side. Traffic on this route is very minimal. The most traffic you will experience is on Route 17.
When on Route 180 I would recommend making the short trip up to Brasstown Bald, the highest point in GA. High elevation change, very twisty road, and crazy bump in the road towards the beginning on the way up.
