Details

  • Anticipated weather on hike day
  • Today's 3.3 mile hike will start and terminate in the parking lot for the 22nd Street access to the Buttermilk Trail. We will follow the Buttermilk Trail to the Manchester Overlook and the Potterfield Bridge. We will cross the river and follow Tredegar Street to the pedestrian bridge under the Lee Bridge and cross to Belle Isle. From Belle Isle we will gain the Reedy Creek Trail for our return to the starting point.

This is anticipated to be a hike over paved walkways, city streets and rustic riverside paths. Some ability to negotiate tree roots, rustic trails, low hanging vines, uneven pavement, toxic plants, culverts, reptiles, damp trail conditions, stairs, spider webs, tall vegetation, fallen trees, scorpions, birds of prey, and river rocks is desirable.
This hike will begin at the posted time, not five or ten minutes later. If you are unfamiliar with the meet up location, add a few minutes to your travel schedule so you can find us. If you need directions to the Meet Up location click on the arrow that is found under "How to find us" in the event description. A larger map will be displayed from which directions to the Meet Up location can be obtained by clicking "Directions" on the left side of the map.
