Located north of Atlanta in Cumming, Georgia, Sawnee Mountain Preserve provides visitors with 963 acres of scenic passive space, hiking trails and an interactive Visitor Center. Please meet at the Bettis Tribble Gap parking lot.

We will meet in the Sawnee Mountain Preserve Bettis Tribble Gap parking lot. From the playground, we'll start on the Mountainside trail loop counter clockwise starting with the Hilltop Trail. Then we'll take a direct up to the communication towers and come down the road to continue on the Mountainside trail loop. We will do the trail down to the church and back. That'll get your heart pumping. And we will add the loop for a figure eight.
