May 14th, 2023: Family Day on the Bartram Trail – A Hike and Craft Event

Unfortunately, we didn’t get enough folks for this event, we’ll look to reschedule another weekend.

This will be a short and fun hike from Warwoman Dell followed by some crafting that will be fun for kids and adults alike.

We will meet at Warwoman Dell in the parking lot, hike the small loop while Erin discusses animals that call the Dell their home. We will end at the picnic pavilion where we will make animal tracks!

This event will be led by our own Erin Hadjidakis who is a Board Member with the Blue Ridge Bartram Trail Conservancy and a Park Ranger at Tallulah Gorge State Park.

Please plan to meet at Warwoman Dell at 2 pm. After a short hike (less than a mile), we’ll make some animal track crafts!

December 30th Walking With Bartram – Section 3: Warwoman Dell to Wilson Gap

***RSVP for this hike is closed as of 12/20. We’ve had great interest in these hikes, which is wonderful! But, logistics and planning for this can only support so many folks. We are working on how we can expand these hiking opportunities.

One more time to get out of the house and add a great hike to your holiday routine before the end of 2022!

Join us for section 3 of our Walking With Bartram hike series on December 30th, 2022. This month we are continuing from Warwoman Dell on to Wilson Gap. This section is roughly 8.5 miles with some respectable elevation changes. Depending on the weather, we may decide to approach this in reverse direction, from Wilson Gap to Warwoman Dell. Either way, we all win with winter views of Rabun Bald and other vistas that the bare trees afford us.

We will meet up at 9am at Waroman Dell (or Wilson Gap, final details will be announced closer to this hike date) to organize shuttles to the other trailhead and get started. We should wrap up by 4-5pm.

All Walking With Bartram hikes are open to anyone with a sense of humor and wonder. Just plan on bringing a lunch, water, and appropriate weather for the season. Hiking poles are not required, but you may appreciate them on the climbs and descents, especially following any snowfalls.

Please RSVP below to help us plan for the hike. Hope to see you on the trail!

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.

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