North Bank Trail and Belle Island Trail
Great Sunday Morning Hike
Details
THIS IS THE MAY 8TH HIKE RESCHEDULED TO THE 15TH
The route will take us along Maymont Park, Kansas Ave, Texas Ave, then by Hollywood Cemetery, Tredegar Iron Works and out to Belle Island before looping back to our starting point at Pump House Road.
Total mileage will be about 7-8 miles of moderate hiking and this will take 3-4 hours, depending on your abilities. Don't worry, no one will be left behind at any point. There will be some areas that are hilly and a bit challenging, but doable for the average person.
This trail is on the North side of the James River, opposite the Buttermilk Trail that we took a month ago. If you want to do part of the hike and not the full hike, please contact me and we can coordinate this.
Directions
Sunday 9 a.m., meet at Trail head off Pump House Drive, Richmond VA. It is the FIRST gravel parking lot on your left when you get at the bottom of the hill, on Pump House Drive (approximately 0.2 mi from Park Drive) See Trail Head map.
We'll have breakfast at McLean's Restaurant, West Broad, around 8 a.m. if you want to join us for that first.
