A Mason Mill Meander

Hello everyone! Let's get together for our classic Mason Mill Meander. We will be meeting at Mason Mill Park in Decatur, GA. We'll meet up in front of the restrooms in the parking lot, then head over to the South Peachtree Creek Trail for a leisurely hike over to Medlock Park. This path is a little over 1 mile in length one-way. We'll then turn around and head back to our cars to finish up our walk.

This is intended to be a fairly easy walk. There are some ups and downs, but they are generally pretty gentle. We'll be moving at a steady, relaxed paced to make it through the hike in an hour. Overall, this should be a good hike for beginners looking for more of a walk than a workout. If there's any question as to whether or not this hike is appropriate for you, you can always contact Lyndsay for more information.

Please arrive about 10-15 minutes early, or a bit earlier if you wish to take advantage of the restrooms before we get started. At 8:25 AM we will have introductions. We will begin our hike promptly at 8:30 AM and get back to the cars at 9:30 AM. 

The weather is predicted to be in the upper 50 Sunday morning as of this posting. Currently the rain is predicted to hold off until the afternoon. One thing to keep in mind - rain can make the boardwalk slick. Please make sure your shoes have good traction.

If you have any questions about the hike, please contact Lyndsay for more information.
