Itinerary:

Come explore the little known but gorgeous Jones Bridge Unit of the Chattahoochee NRA on Tuesday Morning as we cover between 5 to 5.5 miles at a comfortable, moderate pace. We will make a couple of stops along the way to rehydrate.  Beginners are welcome!

We will start our hike by heading towards the historic Jones Bridge (which is now gone!)    We will then walk along the river towards the pond as well as explore the woods and meadows throughout.  We’ll loop around the back end of the park to make our way back to the parking lot. The trails are relatively flat but do expect several hills of about 150 feet of elevation. 

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

We will start promptly at 9:30 and finish up around 11:30.

Please arrive 10 minutes early to allow time for introductions, pay the $5 parking fee, and use the restroom.

 

***Don't leave valuables in car as there have been some reports of vandalism.
