Itinerary:

I hope you'll join me at East Palisades for an explorer Sunday morning 5.5 moderate to fast-paced hike. We will be hiking from the Indian Trail entrance to make our way around 5.5 miles of trail to see the Bamboo Forest, Chattahoochee River, Overlook, the bluffs, and a couple of other interesting places. This is NOT a beginner hike as we will be moving at a moderate to fast pace up hills and on rooted, rocky trails. You must have hiked at least 2 D-1s or a D-2 to join us for this hike. This is a beautiful trail that is perfect for our adventurous hikers who would like to join us for the explorer Sunday morning hike at East Palisades. We will meet in the parking lot at the Indian Trail entrance promptly at 8 AM to complete our hike by 10 am.
