Itinerary:

It is time to try a new hike on Saturday morning!  With this in mind, let's hike the trails at West Palisades in Marietta.   

The West Palisades Unit of the Chattahoochee River is beautiful. The trail follows along the Chattahoochee River. There is a paved bridge that connect the Bob Callan Trail and Rotten Creek Trail to the West Palisades trail for a more urban view. Additionally, the views of the river, wildlife, creek and other views make this perfect for our energizing hike on Saturday morning!  

We will meet in the parking lot to begin our 3-mile hike at 8am and plan to finish by 9 am. This is a gentle trail that is perfect for beginners and newcomers.

 

Optional Volunteer River Clean-up: For anyone who would like to stay over for a little while to help pick-up trash in the park and along the river.   I hope that you will stay with us for 30 minutes an hour or however much time you would like to volunteer after the hike.

  

I hope that you will join me at West Palisades on Saturday!
