Itinerary: | |||||||
Please join me for a hike through the beautiful trails of Vickery Creek. We will start on the Roswell side where the parking is free, cross the covered bridge and up into the Chattahoochee National Recreation Area Park. We will hike along the creek for a view of the dam and then over to the Oxbo Road bridge. The pace will be steady pace approx 2.5 an hour with one quick stop at the bridge on Oxbo Road. There are some moderate climbs but nothing too hard. The trails do have rocks and roots so hiking poles might be helpful. There are restrooms at this location. Please arrive a few minutes early to check in as we will leave on time. NOTE......We are meeting at the covered bridge.
