Itinerary:

Please join us for a 4 1/2 mile hike on the beautiful trails at Henderson Park in Tucker.  This park is a beautiful 121 acre park with a native plant walk on both paved and natural walking paths.  We will loop around Lake Erin twice stopping for a short break at a small cascading waterfall and another short break at the lake.   There are no extended climbs on this hike and the trails are generally level with some gradual inclines.  The hike will end with one last stop at the most beautiful Magnolia tree.
