Itinerary:

Join me for a nice workout along the trails in this beautiful park.

**We will meet in the end parking lot near the Visitor's Center.**

There will be hills, stairs, and areas of elevation to get our heart rates up. I plan to get a nice workout in. I will try to schedule the breaks where we may also enjoy the great views.

We will probably hike from one end of the park and back, so bring plenty of water.


Required Items to Bring:

$3 for parking fee ,
good, comfortable hiking shoes or boots (brand new ones are not recommended),
lots of water to drink and stay hydrated, snacks, and a pleasant attitude!

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
