Itinerary:

Join us for a moderate paced hike at the scenic Roswell Mill area. This is not a hike for beginners.

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. Here we will take a short break before hiking down to the parking lot at Riverside drive. 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 plan accordingly and bring lots of water.  Please arrive a few minutes ahead of time to do introductions before starting the hike at 10.


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

Water, hiking shoes.

We are meeting behind the shops at the Roswell Mill Center where the parking is free.  It is where Hwy 9 (S. Atlanta St) and Hwy 120 (Marietta Hwy) intersect. Head away from hwy 120 and keep driving down the road until you get to the big parking lot at the very bottom of the hill.  For a zoomable map or satellite view of that spot click the rectangular blue and green "event location" icon near the top of this article.
