EVENT FULL: October 28th Walking With Bartram

UPDATE as of 10/25 – Due to overwhelming interest in this hike, the event is now full and RSVP is closed.

Join us for a new round of our Walking with Bartram series hike. 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.

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

We’ll meet at the Sandy Ford Gap/Road trail head at 9AM to get shuttle cars ready.

Please RSVP below to help with planning for this hike. For any other questions, directions and more details, feel free to reach out directly.

December 27th Trailhead Tuesday

This is a new program for those looking to get involved but with limited time. We will meet in the early afternoon to divide and conquer some minor clean up and trail head maintenance. We’re looking for folks to visit a set of selected trail heads to re-stock Bartram Trail information cards, complete a trail head condition report, pick up any trash in the area, and chat with hikers as they start their day hike.

We’ll supply everything you need for the day. Although we suggest you bring your own gloves, a hat, sunscreen, and a positive attitude.

We’ll meet at 1pm in the church parking lot across from Lazy Hiker Brewing in Franklin, NC. At 3pm, we’ll regroup to share our accomplishments over a cold beverage.
