Itinerary:

It's Monday, and a good day to return to a seldom used hiking trail - -  Henderson Park in Tucker, GA.  There are three sections of beautiful trails throughout the park, the Red, White, and Blue Trails, plus many athletic fields. The park can't be beat for a variety of hiking surfaces, woods, creeks, lakes, and even a waterfall.

Be careful to follow the directions below, as there are several entrances to the park and numerous parking lots.  If you follow your GPS, it may take you to the other entrance to the park.  We are entering the park at the entrance off Henderson PARK Road - - NOT the one on Henderson Road!

Hiking poles are recommended!

If you bring a dog, it must be kept on leash and be prepared to pick up after it, if necessary.


Required Items to Bring:

Sturdy hiking shoes

Plenty of fluids

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

 

Hiking poles are recommended for the Red Trail which is hilly, rocky, and full of exposed roots.  There is also a small creek crossing at the waterfall.

Insect repellant
