Itinerary: |
Join me at Island Ford as we enjoy a few of the trails in this beautiful park.
We will meet in the end parking lot near the Visitor's Center. There are restrooms at this location.
There will be a few hills and areas of elevation, enough to get our heart rates up. I plan to get a nice workout in, but to also stop occasionally to admire the views along the way.
I like to appreciate the Chattahoochee as well as the wildlife. There are usually geese, ducks, and maybe a hawk and/or heron to see.
Total Miles: about 5-7 depending on the paths we take. |
