Arboretum Bent Creek Loop 7 Mile

We'll start at the Bent Creek River Park and walk into the Arboretum at the front gate. Then it's Wesley Branch Trail to Carolina Mountain Trail and then into Bent Creek. After that it's Bent Creek Gap Rd, Hardtimes Rd, and then an unmarked trail down Poplar Cove to Rocky Cove Rd back into the Arboretum. We'll walk out on Bent Creek Road and the creek side trails.

It's about 7 miles. Our pace will be about 2.5 miles per hour. Expect to spend 3 hours hiking. Not a difficult hike, not a lot of elevation.
