Itinerary:

<<< Potential Weather >>>

There may be a chance of light rain/shower, but when weather is warm it can be more comfortable and refreshing to go hiking than staying indoors. Bring rain gear if you prefer, even though we’ll be totally sweaty and wet anyway. So bring clean shirt for change is probably even more important for your comfort.

<<< Itinerary >>>

Come join us on this hike at Jones Bridge Unit, Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area.

These trails have a few moderate climbs, but nothing too strenuous.

We meet and start at the main parking lot at the very end of the road. It’s better to arrive a little earlier than the starting time for restroom, getting ready, and introductions.

Daily parking pass is $5 cash if you don't have an annual pass.

An annual pass is a great way to motivate oneself to keep coming back and enjoy all of the National Recreation Area parks and national parks throughout the USA. It is more convenient and very cost effective.


Required Items to Bring:

Water

Good hiking shoes

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

Hiking poles

Rain gear just in case
