Itinerary: | |||||||
We will meet at the East Palisades area parking lot off of Whitewater Creek Road at 4:45 and start the hike promptly at 5:00 PM. There is a $3 parking fee per vehicle.
We will begin our hike along the Chattahoochee River as we take in the sights and sounds of nature. Parts of the trail may be slightly steep, but nothing too strenuous. We will hike approximately 5 miles at a moderate pace. The trails cross and loop a few times as we make our way to a scenic overlook. Here, we'll stop to take in the view. Due to the rainfall be prepared for an on again / off again a muddy trail (potentially .5 miles worth being very muddy, if not a few pools of water....); so water proof footwear is highly recommended. After spending some time enjoying the great views, we'll make our way back towards the parking lot and on the road around 7:00 p.m. | |||||||
