Warren Wilson College is just outside of Asheville and has a wonderful trail system which is open to the public. On Sunday, Feb. 23, we will do a hike there that will take us through scenic woods and along a beautiful stream. We will do around 3-4 miles (depending on the wishes of the group we could do a bit more or less). There is only about 200 feet of elevation gain on the hike. We will be stopping for lunch along the stream at a place we choose. 

Since this is so close to town, we will all meet at the trailhead at 11:30 a.m. We will be back to the parking lot by 2:30 p.m. It’s only about 15 minutes from Asheville just off I-40 between Asheville and Black Mountain. There are several sites to begin hiking on the trail system. When you email or text to sign up, I will send you a link to the parking area where we will begin hiking. 

If anyone is feeling sick, and/or has a fever, they should not attend this outing. Families are welcome! Any children should be accompanied and supervised by parents or other adult family members. Be sure to bring lunch/snacks, water and extra layers. Rain gear is always a good idea regardless of the forecast!

Please email the hike leader, Ed Maggart, at edmaggart@gmail.com or text at 828-713-0541 to sign up or ask any questions. We will limit the group size to 15. We hope to see you there!
