Geography, Alabama Facts
About half of Alabama
Alabama is comprised of coastal plains at
the Gulf of Mexico sloping into hills and broken terrain in the north. Two
thirds of the state are covered by the East Gulf Coastal Plain, including
swamps. Above the coastal plain is the Appalachian Piedmont. The highest point
in Alabama is Cheaha Mountain at 2,407 feet, near Lineville. Major rivers
include the Tombigbee, the Alabama, the Tennessee and the Chattahoochee. Russell
Cave National Monument, near Bridgeport, is the site of caves that were
inhabited continuously from 6000 B.C. to A.D. 1650.
