About this Event

OUR MISSION:

To empower hiking beginners and novices to experience the beauty of nature in Georgia through affordable, organized, and safe hiking events. We strive to create a welcoming community that encourages personal growth, fosters environmental awareness, and promotes a healthy and active lifestyle.


ABOUT FUNGI/MUSHROOMS:

Mushroom, Fleshy spore-bearing structure of certain fungi, typically of the phylum Basidiomycota. It arises from the mycelium, which may live hundreds of years or a few months, depending on its food supply. Since some poisonous mushrooms closely resemble edible ones, mushrooms intended for eating must be accurately identified.


Join us on Saturdays or Sundays for a hiking adventure in Georgia's stunning natural landscape! Our beginner-friendly event is perfect for those looking to get started with hiking or wanting to explore new trails with a group. Our experienced guides will lead the way on a scenic route that showcases the beauty of the area.

The Ridge Nature Area has 308 acres of natural beauty, with miles of trail through a variety of ecosystems and habitats. Hike through hardwood old-growth forests, past wetlands, and a long Ginger Cake Creek for a quiet escape. The gentle slopes and variety of trails make this a popular location for hikers, birders, runners, and families.
