About the Event
$5. Long hike: 11½ mi. Moderate hike: 8½ mi.  Less than 500 ft. elevation gain for both hikes.
Situated along the picturesque Goose Creek, its 20-odd miles of trails comb through the hills and dales covered with riverine vegetation, and the 19th-century farm in its center is, in addition, a source of historical interest. Â All hikers will take three different loops: Â the Goose Creek/Cathedral Trail loop, the Cathedral, Bankarm, Big Meadow, and Greenway loop, and the Tree, White Oak, and Cedar Valley Trail loop. Â Long hikers will take the West Arrowhead and Bluebell loop as well.
