You will see that AllTrails has this listed as a point-to-point hike. We will only be going about 4.5 miles and stopping for a lunch break by the river. If it is warm day, you can get in the river to cool off! After our lunch break, we will head back to the parking lot. We will maintain a pace of 2-2.5 mph.

We will meet at the Ingles Parking lot in Clayton at 9:30am for this hike. The trail is about a 12 minute drive from here. Please bring plenty of water and snacks. Hiking poles are recommended.
