| Itinerary: |
Roswell Greenway
These Greenways don't get enough credit. They are clean, very well maintained and actually very pretty. We'll do a mix boardwalks and paved pathways both through the woods (shady) and in some patches of sun. There is really no elevation change. We'll cover at least 4 miles but no more than 5. We will go out for 45 minutes and turn around and head back.
This is an excellent beginner/novice hike.Wear some sunscreen, you'll get your vitamin D.

Please call the trip leader if you are running late. We won't wait, so you'll have to catch up with the group if you do arrive late.
We'll allow up to three dogs on this hike. Please cooperate with the posted rules. AOC is very visible and it is important we portray a good image. Off leash dogs have been known to chase animals, injure animals and stir up yellow jackets. Additionally, some hikers are afraid of dogs. A leashed dog allows the owner to better control it and makes the hike more comfortable for all involved. Dogs must be on leash at all times, no exceptions. |

Left at second traffic light onto Old Alabama Rd (Second traffic light). McDonalds is on your right)
Go about 1/3 mile and entrance to Roswell Greenway is on your left - you will turn in to a small gravel parking lot. There is a beige (I think) sign with green writing. Come through that parking lot (continuing away from Old Alabama Rd) and follow the gravel road over the hill. There will be a parking area and small restroom building on your right. We'll meet by the restroom building.
