Itinerary:


Spring foliage is happening. To see the change in progress along the Suwanee Greenway, now is the time to be out walking. Vernal Equinox signaled Spring last Sunday. Let's add some evenings to an outdoor 2011. Thursday, Friday; decide on one or both and we'll get a few miles in. Mostly level and paved, the Greenway has a small section with moderate hills and a short section of dirt trail to get legs loosened up. We can cover 3 to 7 miles depending on personal choice. The official walk will be 3 miles round trip, but for anyone wanting to include more afterwards, round trip toward the opposite end of the Greenway can extend the walk with obvious distance markers to cover up to 7 miles overall.


Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
