Itinerary:

Join the National Park Service for a campfire, guided hikes, and a beautiful autumn evening with the glow of the moon overhead.  Roast marshmallows over an open fire, drink delicious "ranger recipe hot apple cider", and walk along a moonlit forest trail.  Discover new facts about the wildlife of the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area and their nocturnal habits.  Receive a complimentary Chattahoochee River Journal with wildlife lists and paw prints.  Enjoy the campfire, the moon light, and the nocturnal sights and sounds of the Chattahoochee.

Dress for the weather; comfortable outdoor clothes and shoes suitable for walking on a forest trail. Don't forget your graham crackers, chocolate bars, and flashlight (with red lens so not to disturb the wildlife)!


Required Items to Bring:

Water. Warm layers of clothes - it will be chilly this weekend!

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

Flashlight or headlamp with red filter lens so not to harm any wildlife eyes.


How to Get There:
Event Directions:

Note don't go in the regular JB park entrance like you are going for a regular hike. We will meet at the Chattahoochee River Environmental Education Center; 8615 Barnwell Road; Johns Creek, Georgia 30022. It is a different entrance.

From GA 400, take exit 7a, and head East 4.1 miles through the intersection of Holcomb Bridge and Nesbitt Ferry Road to the junction of Barnwell Road. Turn left on Barnwell Rd, and travel to the center, which will be on the right.
