Hiking Details:

Thursday Novermber 6th

We will wrap up the 2025 Hiking season on the Girl Scouts Hornet's Nest Council Trail, which is part of the Catawba Lands Conservancy and the Carolina Thread Trail system. This is an in/out trail that generally runs along the South Yadkin River and is about 2.2 miles one way.

The trail is generally flat, but does have some ups and down. It is a natural trail with some roots and rocks, but not as many as we would find on a mountain trail. Good shoes and poles are recommended. The trail could be wet in places depending on recent weather.

We will do a "timed" hike. That is, walk up to one hour and then turn around. Since this is in/out and there are no side trails it will basically be a walk as far as you want but be back to the trailhead in 2 hours.

Please read the “Important Information” included on the website.
