Get out and ENJOY SPRING!

Join the group of  Highlands”Unlikely” Hikers  Friday April 6th

Contact Andrea Mathis and meet up with like-minded “unlikely” hikers who want to experience the joys of hiking at a “do-able” pace and have fun while getting fit.

Highlands “Unlikely” Hikers reinforce that hiking is an activity open to anyone — for those of all levels of fitness. Monthly hikes will be slower paced with plenty of rest breaks and no one made to feel they can’t keep up.

  • Bring plenty of water and a light snack.
  • Wear trail friendly closed toed shoes and dress appropriately for the weather.
  • We will hike the back trail up to the Reservoir, circle around part of the lake and pause for a 15 to 30-minute break to enjoy the area then hike back coming down the old dirt/gravel road.
  • Plan for about a 2 ½ hour excursion to accommodate breaks and enjoyment of the reservoir.
  • The trail is easy/moderate with exposed tree roots, rocks and a few slight assents and a steep set of stairs, with handrail to climb at reservoir.
