Morning Hike at Talking Rock Nature Preserve

We will gather in the main parking lot (you will pass the south lot first), and then make a large loop around the park: including parts of John's loop, Twister, Pickens Trail, and Nitro Nix N. I don't know the exact distance, but it is approximately 5-6 miles.

Talking Rock Nature Preserve is a beautiful, but lesser known park in North Georgia. The trails are shared with bikers traveling in the opposite direction, but there are rarely many. More information and a map  of the park can be found here:
