Itinerary:

OMG! The weather is gorgeous today! Join me for a hike around Decatur to explore Legacy Park, the Wylde Center, and the Columbia Seminary (in that order).

Meet me in front of the Cochran Building at Legacy Park. It's the large brick building, with 4 white columns in front (pictured above). There's plenty of parking.

At Legacy Park, we'll hike the forest trail. We'll do a loop around Postal Pond and Decatur Kitchen (an international community garden).

Then we'll exit the park to walk along the pretty tree-lined streets with pretty houses to Oakhurst.  (Hopefully, there will be ghouls and goblins to greet us.) We'll follow an old trolley trail to the Wylde Center (a charming neighborhood farm/garden).

After we explore Wylde, we'll take a different route which takes us thru Columbia Seminary to explore the grounds and the architecture there.


Required Items to Bring:

Comfortable walking shoes (part of our hike will be in the woods, part sidewalk/pavement)

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