Please note: Bad weather may change cause us to change this hike for another one or cancel it. A decision will be made on Friday at 5pm. You should still sign up if you are wanting to go hiking.

Many people have walked up the main walk-up trail to the top of Stone Mountain but not many have walked the trail through the woods, around the lakes and around the side of the mountain. This is where the Cherokee Trail will take you and it’s a great opportunity to see parts of Stone Mountain park that you may not have seen before. The hike is about 6 miles long and will take about 3-4 hours to complete. It may be 1 mile longer if we decide to include the walk up trail to the top of the mountain.

Things to bring:
– Good tennis shoes, hiking shoes or boots 1
– 1.5 litres of water
– Snacks
– Layered clothing
– Small backpack or waistpack (to carry above items)
– Camera (optional)

We are creating a fund for the hiking group. This is to help compensate drivers if they should experience damage to their vehicles while driving or incur any fines for road violations or parking. We ask that every person hiking gives a $1 donation each time they hike, which will be collected when you sign the waiver document when you arrive. This money is separate from what you pay the driver for gas costs.
