This hike around the paths and trails of Forest Hill Park drops you into a quiet forest setting. Although some of the route we are taking is paved, much of it is dirt trail with roots and elevation changes. Distance is a little over 3 miles. which can be extended for more ambitious hikers.
Meet hike leader Anne-Marie McCartan (757-345-1395) at the north end of the parking lot off W. 42nd St & New Kent Ave. We'll gather at 9:50 for introductions and to go over the planned route. A hiking pole may come in handy. Porta Potties only at parking lot.
