Itinerary:

We will start by going over Big Kennesaw and Little Kennesaw and then continuing to Pigeon Hill. When the trail splits just before Burnt Hickory, we will take the red loop around to the left, following the Brumby Trail back to the visitor's center.

The hike will start out in the overflow lot.

The pace will be moderate - for those that want to see if they can do a D3, just NOT A FAST one.

This is a group hike.  We will stay together.  If you want a faster hike, please don't sign up for this event.

Please note that Kennesaw requires a $5 Daily Pass or a $40 Annual Pass, which can be purchased in the visitor's center, at an automated machine in the parking lot, or online. America the Beautiful National Parks Passes also can be used at Kennesaw.

Bathrooms are not available, plan accordingly.

We will start the hike promptly at 1:30pm, so please arrive early to meet everyone before the hike. Also, please allow extra time if you need to purchase a parking pass.
