Itinerary:

Join us for an evening hike at Vickery Creek! We will meet at the Mill parking lot to start our 5.5 mile hike. We will be going at a fast pace in order to keep our heart rate up, so this is not a beginner's hike.

The weather will be clear and in the 70's - perfect!

We start promptly at 5:45 pm, so please arrive a few minutes early for check in.

Cross the Chattahoochee River, then climb out of the river valley on Roswell Road to Mill Street, a distance of 1.7 miles. Turn right on Mill Street at the entrance to Roswell Mill, go to the end of the street and bear right, still on Mill Street. The park entrance is almost straight ahead with plenty of free parking.
