Itinerary:
Joyce and Lauren are back at it again. We're doing five hikes in one day in celebration of Cinco de Mayo. We'd love for you to join us for as many as you would like. They will be all around the Roswell area. We plan on having lunch at Tijuana Joes on Roswell Rd between hikes 3 and 4 (around 1:30PM). We're hoping to miss the lunch crowd and beat the dinner crowd. Please be flexible if we get there and it's swamped - we'll figure out a game plan if Tijuana Joes isn't going to work.

Hike Dos: Roswell Riverwalk
We'll hike/walk on sunny and shady paths close to the Chattahoochee River.  We'll cover at least 4 miles but no more than 5. We will go out for 45 minutes and turn around and head back.

This is an excellent beginner/novice hike.


Please call one of the trip leaders if you are running late. We won't wait, so you'll have to catch up with the group if you do arrive late.

We'll allow up to three dogs on this hike. Please cooperate with the posted rules. AOC is very visible and it is important we portray a good image. Off leash dogs have been known to chase animals, injure animals and stir up yellow jackets. Additionally, some hikers are afraid of dogs. A leashed dog allows the owner to better control it and makes the hike more comfortable for all involved. Dogs must be on leash at all times, no exceptions.

Required Items to Bring:
water, gatorade or whatever you like to keep hydrated (important)

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