Itinerary:

Join us for an after-work, stretch-your-legs, breathe-in-the-fresh-air, get-the-heart-rate-up kind of a hike!


We will meet at the Old Mill parking lot and explore the rolling trails of Vickery Creek while remembering why we invested in hiking boots.

 

We will hike approximately 5 miles at a good pace, but still have breath to catch up on the news of the day.  This is not a fitness/race pace. But it's also not a flip flop pace. :-)

 

Please try to arrive a few minutes early, as we will start the hike at 5:30pm.


Required Items to Bring:

hiking boots

Recommended Items to Bring:

Borrowed from Sue's great write up! Thank you, Sue!!!

We are meeting behind the shops at the Roswell Mill Center where the parking is free.  It is where Hwy 9 (S. Atlanta St) and Hwy 120 (Marietta Hwy) intersect.  Keep driving down the road until you get to the big parking lot at the very bottom of the hill.  For a zoomable map or satellite view of that spot click the rectangular blue and green "event location" icon near the top of this posting.
