Itinerary: | |||||||
Join me for a hike around Island Ford. We will be covering the majority of the trails including the lollypop loop. The plan is to go a moderate pace with multiple stops to enjoy the river and anything else that seems interesting. Unlike most of my hikes, this one will not be fast. The hike will start from the visitor center parking lot which is located at the end of the road.
Parking is $5 if you do not already have
a pass(Chattahoochee or America the
Beautiful). Info can be found here https
://www.nps.gov/chat/planyourvisit/fees.htm
. They no longer take cash and you will need
internet on your phone to pay.
