Itinerary:

The Big Creek Greenway Trail in Alpharetta is a 6.2 mile concrete trail that runs along Big Creek parallel to North Point Parkway, from Webb Bridge Road on the north end to Mansell Road on the south end. We will be meeting at the trail entrance near the Alpharetta YMCA, and then we will walk for 2 hours covering about 5-6 miles of the trail. The entire greenway is extremely flat, so we will be walking at a good pace to try to get a little workout in.

There are restrooms at the trailhead, and there is no fee to park.

Required Items to Bring:

Hiking Shoes and Water
