Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue.
This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary.

Itinerary:

Let's go walk around some intown parks. We will start at Tanyard Creek Park, then walk around Bobby Jones Golf Course to Atlanta Memorial Park. Then we will loop around the other side of these parks, covering about 5 miles in total.

This walk will be close to 100% on concrete, so wear your cushiest shoes. Our pace will be at the fast end of moderate (~3.0mph) because of the smooth, flat surfaces.

We will be in the sun a good bit, so sunscreen and a hat are recommended.

There are no bathrooms at the beginning of the hike. There may be some at the golf clubhouse, but it's uncertain, so plan on no bathrooms during the hike.

We will start the hike promptly, so please arrive about 10 minutes early to meet everyone.

Required Items to Bring:

Water

Comfy walking shoes

Recommended Items to Bring:

Event Directions:

We will meet at Tanyard Creek Park. Use the address 1958 Walthall Dr NW, Atlanta 30318.

Park on the park side of Walthall because there are some 'no parking' areas on the side with houses.

We will meet at the bottom of the entrance ramp that leads down to the playground. The ramp is right across from the address listed here.
