We'll hike for about 3 miles on the beautiful Dunns Farm and Pioneer Trails in the Jennings State Forest. We'll visit an old cemetery and see several waterfalls.

Most of the trail is flat and easy, but there is a .75 mile moderately difficult section with hilly terrain. Trekking poles will help.

Bring water, bug spray, and sunscreen. No pets (service dogs OK). OK for older kids who can keep up with adults.

HOW TO GET THERE:
We’ll meet at the Dunns Farm/Powell Ford Rd trailhead.
Follow these directions:

  • Take Blanding Blvd/US 21 south into Middleburg. Turn right on CR 218 and drive about 4.3 miles.
  • Turn right on to Nolan Rd and go 2.3 miles to the Jennings Forest sign.
  • Drive 1 mile on the dirt road (DO NOT turn right on Ellis Ford Road!) to the trailhead parking on the left. Look for the Sierra Club sign.

Sierra Club maintains a safe space agreement between participants, leaders, volunteers, and staff.
