Itinerary:

 

Join us for a morning hike in Mason Mill Park, Lullwater Preserve, and Hahn Woods. We will start with an unpaved trail in Mason Mill Park that is uneven and steep at times. Then we’ll connect with the South Peachtree Creek Trail (paved or boardwalk) which we’ll take to Lullwater and then Hahn Woods. From Hahn Woods we will backtrack, take the loop past the old Candler mansion (now home of the Emory president) and Candler Lake (pictured above), then rejoin the Peachtree Creek Trail to return to our starting point.

 Most of the hike will be on paved paths, boardwalk, or smooth unpaved paths. The only sections that are uneven are the first segment in Mason Mill Park and the Hahn Woods section. This is not a fast or training hike; we will maintain an upper moderate speed (3.1+ mph) on the paved or smooth sections, and  slow down considerably on the steep/uneven segments.


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