INTRO TO THE TRAILS FALL FOLIAGE HIKE!

There is no better time to be on the trails than in the fall, when the colors can be dazzling. (Of course spring, summer, and winter each have their own beauty as well.)

Please join us on Saturday, November 7 at 9 am for a free Intro to the Trails hike. While the event is geared toward first-timers to the PoSho trails, returning hikers are also welcome.

There will be two options. The longer option will be a 3.5 mile loop covering the entire Powell’s Creek Trail and circling back along Potomac River Blvd. On this hike, you’ll learn all four of the trailheads that access the northern trails. The shorter option will be approximately 1.5 miles and will allow participants to experience the trail without committing to walk its entirety. Both hikes will start at the trailhead on Potomac River Blvd., just off of Potomac Shores Parkway, where there is a large trailhead sign. Both hikes will visit the popular Dent Family Overlook.

Please email [email protected] to RSVP or to ask any questions. Let us know:

1. How many will be in your party
2. The ages of any children
3. Your cell number
4. Whether you prefer the longer or shorter hike (you can change your mind on the day of the hike—this is just to give us a rough idea).

We look forward to hiking with you!
