Itinerary:

Join us for a fast paced hike at the scenic Roswell Mill area. 

The hike will start at the free parking lot at the Roswell Mill.  We will cross the covered bridge and hike along the creek for a view of the dam and then head up through the trails to the bridge at Oxbo Road. We will take a short break at the bridge and check if the long leaf magnolia is in bloom. The hike will give us a variety of hills with a good bit of elevation gain to get in a good workout.  The pace will be moderate to fast with a few stops along the way. 

Temperatures will be hot so be sure and bring plenty of water.  Please arrive a few minutes ahead of time to do introductions before starting the hike at 6.


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

Water, hiking shoes.
