Kennesaw Mountain Hike

September 19 @ 2:00 pm

Join us for a hike on Kennesaw Mountain’s less traveled Pigeon Hill Trail.

Like other well-known rock outcrops near metro Atlanta, Kennesaw Mountain rises above the surrounding landscape hosting native forests and uncommon species as well as nesting sites for birds and homes for native wildlife. Part of the Mountain’s  unique habitat is due to underlying geology that provides mineral-rich soils. Much of today natural areas in the Kennesaw Mountain Park complex here were also protected due to this site’s history as an important Civil War battleground that set the stage for the Union capture of Atlanta — initiating the end of the Civil War.

We’ll walk along the Pigeon Hill Trail, admiring this remarkable natural area and discussing interesting trees, species and the natural phenomena we’ll find along our way. Prepare for an approximately 2.5 mile walk on natural trails, trail is rocky in places.
