Itinerary: | |||||||
This is a fitness hike for intermediate to advanced hikers and for those training for any endurance activity, or just wanting to burn off a bit of fat. It's also a great way to meet other people who share the same passion for the outdoors, fitness, and hiking. The hike is approximately 10 miles round trip with a moderate to fat burning hiking pace. We will start at the top of the falls at the trailhead, but plan on meeting at the visitors parking lot across the street from the park's visitors center. From the trailhead, we will hike the AT Approach trail for 4 miles. We will turn onto the Len Foote Trail and hike a mile to Len Foote Hike Inn. We will stop at the Inn for a quick 10-15 minute break. We will continue back via the Len Foote route. We should be back in Atlanta early afternoon. | |||||||
