Itinerary:

Jones Bridge has picturesque overlooks and portions will be along the Chattachoochee River. 

We will keep a steady pace with an occasional pause to keep everyone together.  We will start by hiking to the historic bridge, then along the river and take several loops before returning to our starting point.  There are a few hills but most of the trail is relatively flat.

We will meet in the parking lot at the very end of the entrance road.  Restrooms are available.

Dogs are welcome but must be on a leash according to park rules.

If you don't have an annual park pass, please come a few minutes early to pay the $3 parking fee.

$3 parking fee or annual parking pass

Appropriate clothing for weather

Appropiate walking/hiking shoes

Fluid for adequate hydration
