**7.5 mile out and back lariat hike with 900 feet of elevation gain.**

**Description:**
Join us for a scenic hike along Bull Run and in the adjoining forest. We will hike on the Bull Run Occoquan Trail from Bull Run Marina heading east toward Coe Creek area. There are rolling hills but they are short and spread out. This will be a nice workout!

**NOTE: This is just below a B hike rating. Make sure you are physically able for the distance and elevation gain.**

**Hiking Pace:**
The pace will be about 2.5 mph.

There should be a porta-potty at the trailhead marina parking lot across the street from our trailhead, but you may want to schedule a pit stop on the way before you arrive.

***We will stop for snack/lunch break about halfway through.***

**Bring:**
At *least 2 liters of water/hydration, snacks/lunch, and sturdy hiking shoes since there are some rocky areas and tree roots. Hiking poles if you use them. Most of the hike is in the forest canopy.*

Meet at the trailhead parking lot 15 minutes early to allow everyone to sign in and get ready to hike at 9:00am.

**Fee:** There is no parking fee.

**Dogs are welcome.**
