🍂🐢 Spectacular Sunday Six – Scenic Spotted Turtle Trail Stroll! 🥾🌿

☀️🍂 Let's enjoy the beautiful fall colors with a scenic 6-mile hike at a steady pace of approximately 3 mph along the Spotted Turtle Trail in the Beaver Creek Wetlands!

🌿 Our adventure will take us through Amon Reserve on its beautiful boardwalks, Beerman Fen, and Valle View South Reserve. We'll follow a ¾-mile sidewalk section across I-675, then continue through Community Park along Beaver Creek to Garland Road.

🔄 From there, we'll turn around and enjoy a slightly different route on our return journey, taking in more of the wetlands' autumn beauty!

🧭 No pets. One guest.
🧭 Recommended: Trekking poles, footwear that will get muddy or wet, drinking water, and snacks.

A Friendly Guide to Sharing the Trails: As we hike, we'll be sharing the path with others. To ensure a peaceful experience for everyone, let's be mindful of how we communicate. Instead of loud call-outs, let's use quiet voices and enjoy the sounds of nature. 🐦 When encountering others, we can simply move to the right to let them pass. ➡️ If someone is coming up behind our group, a quiet message passed up the line works perfectly. There's no need to yell, stop or leave the trail entirely; just making a little space is all that's needed for everyone to share the path gracefully. ⚜️
