Itinerary:

200 Morgan Falls Rd, Sandy Springs, GA30350

 

We will hike/walk through Morgan Falls Overlook Park. This is one of Sandy Spring’s most visited parks. The park consists of a 30-acre riverside park in which there are picnic pavilions, playground, restrooms, boat dock, hiking trail, fire pit, porch swings, and scenic views. The view of Bull Sluice Lake in the morning is goregous as well as the landscapes of Overlook Park.  

We will be hiking at a moderate pace and plan to complete a three-mile hike in 1  hour. This is an easy trail and  walk around the park, so this event is perfect for beginners, newcomers or those who want to get morning exercise.

  We will meet at 7:30 pm  in the Overlook Parking lot. If the parking lot is full there is additional parking at the dog park below Morgan Falls Overlook Park. The address is  200   Morgan Falls Rd, Sandy Springs, GA. When you reach the intersection to either turn into the Overlook Park Parking lot (which is Right side) or Left to the dog walking park, remember to turn left and follow the road to the bottom parking lot. 

 I look forward to hiking with everyone and meeting our newcomers!
