October 25th Walking with Bartram

This month we will be starting at Wallace Branch and hiking up to and connecting with the Trimont Ridge Trail, which takes us back to the old state prison on Co-op Road. From there we will take the sidewalk back to the Lazy Hiker. This hike takes us through some beautiful cove forest and alongside ancient trade paths. The Trimont Ridge Trail is the proposed reroute to the Bartram Trail that will hopefully take place in the next few years.

This section isn’t in our Bartram maps, but it will be a 5-6 mile hike.

Please RSVP if you’d like to join! We will keep you updated on forest conditions and closures.

This week’s hike is at capacity, but email us at info@ncbartramtrail.org to get on the waiting list if you’re still interested in doing this section this month! This is a 9.3 mile hike featuring some great views from Rainy Mountain.

We’ll meet at the Warwoman dell parking area at 9am and get ready to shuttle vehicles and begin hiking.

These hikes have been very popular and we’re so appreciative of the enthusiasm and interest in them! In order to minimize impact and logistical issues, we are limiting the group size to 14 people. This is the same hike that is being led on March 20th, so attend whichever one suits you the best.

Please RSVP below to help with planning for this hike, and if you would like to lead a hike in the future, let us know. For any other questions, directions and more details, feel free to reach out directly.

February 23rd Walking With Bartram – Russell Bridge to Sandy Ford Round 1

Join us for the 3rd round of our Walking with Bartram series hikes. We’re starting all over again in North Georgia, at Russell Bridge/HWY 28 at the South Carolina state line. We’ll work our way through this first section to Sandy Ford Gap.

Last year, these hikes were really popular, we’re so appreciative of the enthusiasm and interest in them! Be sure to RSVP below to help us with planning. Also, if you would like to lead a hike, let us know.

This 9.5 mile section will take us along sections of the scenic Chattooga River.

We’ll meet at the Russell Bridge trail head at 9AM to get shuttle cars ready. Since there’s limited space at Sandy Ford, we’ll shuttle there and walk back to Russell Bridge.

Due to higher demand, we will have 2 of these events. The second hike takes place on February 29th. Please RSVP below to help with planning for this hike. For any other questions, directions and more details, feel free to reach out directly.
