Itinerary:

This is a hike for intermediate to advanced hikers.  The hike will begin at the top of the falls.  We will hike approximately 5.5 miles up the Approach Trail to the Len Foote Hike Inn. We will stop for a short break and to eat a snack/lunch while we enjoy the view.  We will return by completing the loop in a clockwise direction. 

We will maintain a steady pace with very limited rest breaks, except to enjoy our lunch and a beverage at the Len Foote Inn.  

While the pace will be on the quicker side of moderate, it will not be a race, and we expect anyone who wants to hike ahead of the group to stop at all intersections. 

Hike will start promptly at 8:30am, please arrive a few minutes early for intros, etc.

You MUST have a D4 within the last 3 months to participate in this hike.  If you are on the waitlist, either you didn't qualify for the event or the event is full.

How to Get There:
Event Directions:

From the Park & Ride we will go north on Georgia 400 past the outlet Mall to GA 136. Left on 136 till GA 52. Right until the park entrance. Instead of parking in the Visitors Center lot, take a left before the lot and head up the hill to the parking lot for the Len Foote Inn Trailhead.


Notes:

The Len Foote Inn often graciously provides coffee, tea, fruit and leftovers as snacks for day hikers.  Please remember to bring enough money to tip appropriately if you choose to take advantage of this courtesy.


However, you can not count on there be any food there when we arrive so your trip leaders highly recommend that you bring your lunch :)
