Itinerary:

Please join me for another edition of TGIF, this time at 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 and back.

The pace will be steady pace approx 2.5 an hour and we'll make water breaks as needed. 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 (you can use it before or after the hike, since they are by the covered bridge).

Please arrive a few minutes early to check in as we will leave on time.

(Thanks Sue M. for the info and the picture!)

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

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. 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.
